ACS Sport

As a founding member of the Association of Co-educational Schools, Loyola College has fielded teams in ACS competitions since 1998.

Loyola fields over 50 sport teams each week, during the Summer and Winter seasons, providing a vast array of opportunities for students from Years 7 to 12 to compete against students of like ability in good spirited competition. Year 7 Sport is held on Tuesday afternoons, Senior Sport takes place on Wednesdays and Year 8 & 9 Sport is played on Thursdays. Loyola students are required to be available to represent the College on these afternoons.

Selection in a Senior Firsts core ACS Sport serves as recognition that a student has graduated to the highest level of ACS competition, after developing their skills in age group teams in Year 7, 8 and 9.
