My name is Toni-Marie, and I am one of your Sporting Captains for 2019. I have been involved with the school since Year 4 and have enjoyed countless sporting experiences along my way. I now spend my time playing netball and touch as well as competing on the track. Since before I knew I have aspired to take on the challenge of this title and so, therefore, I am honoured to accept the Sports Captain position and strive to ensure that all students of Lake Joondalup feel a part of the sporting culture

I want to thank the contributions of Taane Phillips and Meg Johns to the role of Sports Captains over 2018. From your efforts within the school, to after hours and interschool you are to be admired by the many faces that have looked up to you this year. You two have led the College in an amazing year consisting of many achievements and have left big shoes for Connor and I to fill.

This role is an honour and Connor and I hope to work closely with the HPE Department to ensure another successful year.

Not only do we plan to be a dominant force at all 3 ACC events but we also hope to build a more professional standard within the College gates. We will do this by increasing the number of programs on offer, making improvements to Inter House Carnivals and approaching newly found sporting carnivals to push Lake Joondalup to the sporting level we know we can reach.

We hope that what we bring to the table for 2019 is something that can be enjoyed and held with high regard by staff and students. 2018 has been a benchmark year and we aim to not only follow suit but go above and beyond.

Toni-Marie Smith

2019 Sports Captain

I am Connor Sharrock and alongside Toni-Marie Smith, will be your 2019 Sports Captains. I am excited and very grateful to have been elected to this position and am looking forward to another successful year at the College.

I have attended the Lake Joondalup Baptist College since year 7. I have been lucky enough to participate in the schools many sporting programs such as CAS, lunchtime sports and the rugby program as well as represent the college in ACC Swimming, Cross Country and Athletics. I have also studied Outdoor Ed and Specialised Sport at the school and have been able to utilise the amazing sporting facilities and Sports Center. It is encouraging to see the hard work and dedication that the Health and Physical Education Department have for the College’s sports programs.

I have played many sports from Golf to tennis, swimming, athletics, but my particular sporting interests lie in basketball and rugby. I have played Rugby Union since I was 4 and have been lucky enough to be a part of a team where we won the Junior Grade Premiership many times.

I have also been able to play alongside many talented athletes that are both current students, as well as former and departing students from the College. They have helped me develop, excel in my own chosen sports and reach many personal goals.

The Sports Captain position is one that I hold next to the Head Girl and Head Boy position. It is more than a title but a responsibility to be an example to your fellow students, a leader, both within the school and also the community. Someone students can look up to and ask for help or guidance and someone that is willing to be an advocate for the students. I want to thank the previous and current Sport Captains, Taane Phillips and Meg Johns, for their example and dedication in fulfilling the Sport Captains position. I look forward to carrying on the hard work as well as bringing new ideas that involve the whole school and really develop the already amazing sports program. I am honoured to be your sports captain in 2019 and look forward to seeing LJBC shine in all sporting endeavours.
