Schoolboys Cup 🏆

Round 2 ended as a forfeit from Thornlie so we are straight into Round 3, taking place at Darling Range Sports College tomorrow for a 11:45am kick off.

Shaping up to be a preview for the Grand Final later in the term. Our boys are ready to make a statement and remain undefeated.

Good luck boys! 🙌

Schoolboys Cup kicks off this afternoon at 5pm with our first round matchup taking place at Lark Hill Sports Complex against Baldivis Secondary College. An exciting opportunity with the start of an official senior competition in 2026 with potential to advance further interstate.

Come down and support the school team if you can. Good luck to all boys named to play! 🙌

A great first week back for Term 2, with both our Year 7/8 and Year 9/10 Rugby League 9-a-side carnivals taking place 🏉

The carnivals followed a round-robin format against multiple schools, leading into a finals series later in the year.

For our Year 7 boys, this was their first opportunity to play together as a team and begin building combinations. After opening the day with a draw, they reflected, adjusted, and improved each game — finishing 1st overall. A fantastic first achievement 👏

Our Year 8s started strongly but battled fatigue as the day progressed due to limited numbers. They finished 4th overall, taking valuable lessons from the day and identifying key areas to work on throughout the term.

Our Year 9 and 10 teams faced strong competition but used their experience and teamwork to remain undefeated (with a few draws along the way), both finishing 1st overall 💪

A strong start to the term with plenty to build on moving forward. Well done to all players!

Out of 20 players selected in total, it is incredible to have 8 RSHS students invited to take part in this elite pathway opportunity. A great representation of the talent we have in our school community, with potential for more to be invited in the future.

Goes to show that hard work pays off. These boys have finished their first training block this week and are now bringing back valuable skills and higher standards to their clubs and our schoolboys competitions.

Very well deserved and we can’t wait to see how they all develop as players and young men this year. A lesson learnt in their first session: Talent opens the door, your effort and character keeps you there.

Last week on Friday, our Year 10 boys and girls spent the day being referees for the RASSA League Tag Carnival.

The class had previously participated in the Beyond the Goal Post referee course and used this event as practical experience towards becoming qualified referees.

It was very hot and humid conditions, with students taking turns to referee games all day. We are very proud of their incredible efforts with positive feedback throughout the day. Our students were even surprised how enjoyable and rewarding refereeing can be in the end.

Well done Year 10 on setting the standard for the RSHS Rugby League Academy.
