Please be aware that Table Tennis and Badminton will continue regardless of cancellations as these are at indoor venues. If a cancellation is made due to Hagley Park ground conditions only, Nunweek Park Hockey and Netball will continue.

TRAINING SESSIONS:

As outlined in our Sports Code of Conduct (see above), we have an expectation that students show commitment to their team by attending a weekly training session. Coaches will be advertising training sessions in the daily notices and will be taking attendance registers. If you are unable to make a particular training session you must communicate this with your coach in person or via email.

LANGUAGE LESSONS & ORCHESTRA:

If you attend Language tuition or are involved in the Heaton orchestra and this clashes with a scheduled training session you must notify your coach. Language lessons and the Orchestra always take priority, as an alternate time or training with a different Heaton team will be possible.

ADDITIONAL UPDATES FROM PRIMARY SPORT CANTERBURY:

The purpose of weekly sport is to give all interested young people a chance to play sport against others in our region. The enjoyment of all is of most importance to us and if this means having to alter games to accommodate differing abilities then please take the initiative and do this.
