GO THE CACABURRAS
The Coomera Anglican College Basketball Club was established in 2012, primarily to provide opportunities for Coomera Anglican College students to be involved in this great sport in the wider community.
The club competes on Thursday and Friday nights and Saturday morning at the Northern Gold Coast. The Basketball club plays in the Northern Gold Coast Seahawks competition, catering for male and female athletes from 7-years to Opens.
The purpose of our club sports is linked to our overarching College mission:
"To inspire excellence in teaching, learning, service and faith."
With a holistic educational approach, our sporting clubs aim to offer the students at the College a range of opportunities that will help them develop skills and attitudes they need to reach their full potential.
Our major club goals are centred around:
- Participation for both competition and enjoyment;
- Maintaining an active lifestyle;
- Develop a lifetime commitment to sport;
- Build self-esteem and camaraderie;
- Provide meaningful and challenging experiences;
- Develop strong relationships; and
- Partnerships.
Join us in shaping a future where sports not only cultivate physical prowess but also instill invaluable life skills and relationships that last a lifetime.
