Which Sports Are Available At Maroubra Junction?

Our Summer sports run on Friday mornings in Terms 1 and 4. The PSSA sports include league tag, softball and AFL. We also offer wonderful school sports off site and at school.

Our Winter sports run on Friday afternoons in Terms 2 and 3. The PSSA sports include rugby league,  netball and football. We also offer wonderful school sports off site and at school.

How Are PSSA Teams Organised?

Each team comprises of some reserves. Each week all children have the opportunity to play, and children are rotated around on a roster. We strongly believe that all students on a team have the right to play equal time. it is not necessarily the best children on the team that play a full game every week. Some coaches go the extra step to create reserves that can attend their games if children are away. This allows more children the opportunity to participate.

Each week when the sports go off site to play, buses are organised to transport all players. There is a cost involved with the bus and, in the case of some sports, a cost for the sport itself. These costs will be clearly communicated to parents at the beginning of each season and payment needs to be made as soon as possible. Buses leave for summer sports at 9.30am and for winter sports buses leave at 12.30pm.
