Sport in the Public Schools Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Since its inception, sport has played a central role to the PSA with the schools competing against one another in sporting competitions throughout the year. There are three main carnivals that occur, which are the Head of the River rowing regatta, interschool athletics carnival, and the interschool swimming carnival. Weekly sports fixtures occur during the summer months in basketball, cricket, tennis, volleyball and water polo. Winter fixtures include Australian rules football, badminton, cross country running, hockey, rugby union, and soccer.
