With the Summer seasons of Year 8, 9 and Senior EISM Sport all beginning in the next week or so, please remember the following:
- Check the Sport plans — up on the Doyle Centre window at the beginning of every week and on the College Instagram story
- If you are unable to play in your team in a particular week, you need to let your coach know as early as possible
- Please be on time to the Doyle Centre on your sport day. All EISM teams need to leave at the start of lunch (occasionally earlier) to get to venues to play
- Your uniform needs to be 100% correct to ensure no forfeited games — hockey, soccer and football players must wear long navy socks (available at the Doyle Centre) and mouthguards must be worn for hockey. NO CORRECT UNIFORM, NO GAME.
