Important
- Radford students who choose to trial for SSACT teams are to follow the registration process for the respective sport trials. The majority of SSACT trials are conducted outside school hours, however if the trial does take place during the school day, it is the responsibility of the parent / guardian to notify the College of their child’s absence.
- If a Radford student is selected in a SSACT representative team, it is the responsibility of the parent / guardian to follow the normal College absence processes.
SSACT Scholarship Fund
The SSACT Scholarship Fund is once again open and available for students who have been selected in a SSACT representative team and are required to travel interstate to compete at the respective School Sport Australia National Championships.
More information on the Scholarship Fund and its consideration criteria, can be found within the Resources section of the SSACT website.
Successful applicants will receive a $500 deduction from their team fees during the payment phase of the team preparation process. The approval process can be quite quick once the student is selected and one of the criteria is deemed as a 'Circumstantial Hardship' e.g. multiple children from the same family making teams in a close timeframe.
Scholarship applications are to be submitted to eo@schoolsportact.org.au
