Sacred Heart wins 2023 Virtual Athletics

Congratulations to Sacred Heart College who was the winner of the 2023 ACC Virtual Athletics Championship.  

Results from all carnival divisions have been processed using Meet Manager so that the performances of every athlete at every ACC school could be compared, regardless of the carnival division.  To score points in the virtual carnival, competitors needed to finish in the first 8 places.  No count backs were used in field events and all competitors with the same performance received an equal placing.  This is a great opportunity for students to gauge their individual performances against the best performers from all other ACC schools. 

The virtual carnival results are now available on the ACC website at https://www.accsport.asn.au/system/files/meetmanager/athletics/2023/Virtual/index.htm

ATHLETICS ALL STARS TEAM

The results from the virtual carnival were used to select the ACC Honorary All Stars Athletics team.  To be selected, an athlete needs to place as one of the best two performers in each event type per age group.  For relays, the top four 100m runners will be selected.  Schools should check the Virtual Carnival results carefully and report any errors to the ACC ASAP.
