At this carnival I came 8th in the batting with 124 runs at 31 in 4 innings including 67 against Marist College Ashgrove. Furthermore, I have also competed for Riverina in:
• Bradman Cup Team (Under 16): At this carnival I was leading run scorer with 262 runs at 62.5. This included 2 consecutive centuries (129,108) in two days.
• Gorrell Cup Team (Under 17): At this carnival in the final I top scored with 83 and was selected to play in the NSW Southern Carnival.
• Kingsgrove Cup Team (Under 17): At this carnival I scored the most runs and achieved selection in the Southern NSW side to compete against NSW Northern.
• NSW Southern Team (Under 17): As an underage player I was pleased to make it this far and have the opportunity to play for NSW Country and possibly NSW this year.
For St Josephs College this season, I have scored over 420 runs including 86 against the High School, 52 against the Shore School, and 70 and 34 against the Kings School.

Proudest Sporting Achievements

 My proudest sporting moment would be scoring consecutive hundreds at the Bradman Cup Carnival held at Coffs Harbour.

What are you hoping to achieve

I have already been selected in the U 17’s Country Camp for 2009, which in turn gives me a fantastic opportunity to gain selection in the U 17’s NSW Country side and hopefully also gain selection in the NSW U 17’s side to participate in the National Carnival. In addition I am I hoping to continue the success I have had for St Josephs College in both the G.P.S competition and the 2009 Marist Carnival.

I've got a lot of news, and most of it not good unfortunately! If you hadn't heard or read it in the paper, Newington beat us 51-7 so we didn't win the premiership. In the game itself, in the second half I got badly concussed and I spent 5 hours in hospital so that wasn't much fun at all. This also meant that I didn't get to play in the last round match against Shore, which we also lost 32-19. It was a disappointing finish to a season that promised so much. So now that Rugby season is over, cricket has started again but I'm doing athletics at the moment. Also, I'm going home this weekend for the major semi final of the AFL for the Bulldogs, so that should be awesome. Hopefully we can win, and go straight into the grand final! I'll keep you updated on what the result is.

Just writing in to tell you that everything is going well and that we are still unbeaten so far in the Rugby! We played Riverview, our biggest rival and we managed to beat them 30-27! So things are looking good for the team but we still have two weeks left and we have to play the undefeated team this week, Newington, who we drew 13-13 in the trial. So it is shaping up to be another big game!

Great news, we beat Kings on the weekend!!!!! Kings had 8 Australian schoolboys representatives, had beat us 35-5 in the trial game earlier in the year, we were playing on their home ground and we beat them in the best game of any sport I have ever played in! The score was 21-20 and I took a kick after the bell to win. The score had see-sawed the whole game but they gave a penalty away in the last 30 seconds when we were attacking their line and it was all up to me to kick the points. The score was 18-20 to Kings with no time left, so it was do or die basically! Fortunately I kept my cool and kicked the goal and we won the game! The spirit from the school on the hill was amazing, and something that I will never forget. Our coach who has been at Joeys for over 30 years said that he had never seen a game anywhere near as exciting, or thrilling. He said it will go down in Joeys history as one of the greatest rugby days ever. But the boys know that there are still 3 games left and there is no point in beating the best then relaxing on our morales. We have a bye this week, and are recovering in preparation for the next biggest game of the year, Riverview. Everyone is very excited, and there is a great feeling at the school. The Line Break once again is doing the job, the calf guards are great, keeping the cramps away, and also the long short are awesome. I’ve included some photos of the day so you can get a grasp of just how amazing it really was. Once again, a huge thanks to the Line Break crew, all your support and help is greatly appreciated!

I know it's been a while since I have written a blog but I've been very busy with everything! Firstly, I have recently been promoted to the 1st XV for Joeys and we play Kings this week so that should be a big challenge but nonetheless a great chance to prove some people wrong! Also, I have just come back from school holidays in which I have been playing in my local AFL competition for the Turvey Park Bulldogs who are unbeaten with 4 rounds left before the finals. Another good year from the Bullies, and hopefully this year we can go one step further than last year and win the comp!

Thanks very much for everything once again, you guys are really helping me out with your compression gear!

Thought I'd wait til I had some decent news! The rugby teams at school have almost completely been finalised and it looks as if I will be playing in the 2nd XV at fullback, along with kicking at goal, in general play and for touch. I am one of only 3 yr 11's in the team, and one of only 5 yr 11 boys in either the 1st/2nd XV. It is a great honour to be selected in these teams at our school so I am very happy that the hard work I put in over the off season has paid off! We have played 3 trials so far and we have won each of these comfortably. I have been pleased with my performances over the last 3 weeks and have improved remarkably over this time as well with the help of some professional coaches and ex-joeys boys in certain aspects such as kicking at goal by Matthew Burke, and passing and attack by Kurtley Beale. We are playing the Kings School this week and they will be our greatest challenge by far this season, but to be the best you have to beat the best. Finally, the CalfGuard compression socks are going fantastically, I haven't had a cramp in my calves for over a month now which is a great sign they are working. The compression shorts are going well, and always keep my legs ready for whatever gets thrown at them! Anyway, thought I might just let you know how everything is going, also just to let you know again just how good the gear is!

Just writing to let you know that Joeys won the 2010 GPS Cricket Premiership!! It was a great victory and we are very pleased that the hard work has payed off! Without including the trial season I scored 403 at an average of 34, and including trial season I scored 807 runs at 41. So it has been a successful season with the bat! Lord Taverner’s Week finished very well, we came equal second with CCC and we were beaten by CHS 1. I ended up with 140 runs at 28 and 10 wickets at 15.8 from the 5 games. Unfortunately, I was not selected in the NSW Schoolboys side, despite having the statistics to do so. But, as I was told there is always next year! Rugby has started this week already, and we have internal games this week. I have been selected in the 2nd side, in the hope that I will work my way into the 1st side.

This weekend we are playing in our final competition game for St Joseph's College and we are currently leading the competition by 3 points. We are playing the team that is coming 5th so if we play like we can, we should win and bring some silverware home! Which will be good. Also next week I will be participating in the Lord Taverner's Week as I was selected for the Combined GPS XI. It was a great honour to be named in this team even though I am only in yr 11. The Linebreak gear is absolutely awesome!

I recently participated in a cricket carnival in brisbane and my team won the whole thing. I scored a century on one of the days, mixed in with a few wickets as well. Though a low point of the carnival was getting 2 ducks! Doesn't help when you get run out twice when the ball is hit straight to the fielder and the other batsman runs! Anyway, I just wanted to tell you once again how awesome the Line Break gear is. By far and away the best compression gear I've ever worn.

I’m disappointed that I did not make the NSW City side like I had hoped for cricket. Unfortunately I did not score enough runs in the trials and did not receive selection. On a positive note though, I have scored two consecutive centuries for my school side, and the LineBreak equipment has been very comfortable. I am very disappointed to have missed out, but I suppose that everything happens for a reason. I will keep you informed on my progress, and how the LineBreak gear is going.

Just to let you know that we didn't win the grand final. We went down by 16 points in a pretty tough and physical game. LineBreak compression gear stood up to the task again!
