Golf - School Sport Australia

Due to the ongoing volatility caused by COVID-19 outbreaks, hot spot declarations and border closures, all School Sport Australia Championships for 2021 have been cancelled. School Sport Australia’s priority is on the wellbeing of students, teachers and other officials. The complex implications caused by the possibility of sudden border closures while teams were out of their home state combined with several Education Departments not prepared to endorse interstate travel for students and staff plus the challenge to confirm existing Championships led to the decision by the School Sport Australia Board to cancel the Championships.

School Sport Australia Golf History

The 18 Years & Under Golf Championships commenced in 1977 but were preceded by seven years of annual interstate competition between New South Wales and Queensland boy’s teams. Since 1970, these two teams have been competing for the “Gavin Semple Shield” in honour of an Inspector of Schools in Queensland who donated the trophy to the competition.

SSA 12 & Under Golf commenced in Victoria in 2002 at Beaconhills Golf Club in Victoria with the competing states being NSW and Victoria. Rob Bowtell (Vic), Ross Abbott (NSW) and Mike Murray from Victoria Primary School Sports Association were the driving forces in initiating the first competition.
