Regional trials exemption policy

​​​​​​​​We understand that there are times when students attending an affiliated school may not be able to take part in a regional trial. 

Students who meet certain criteria may apply for an exemption from participating in a regional trial.

If your exemption application gets approved, it does not guarantee you will be picked to join our a regional sports team.  

Our selectors will consider your application based on factors such as your sporting history, previous qualifying standards and your fitness levels you will most likely have when the team travels to play. 

When selecting players or competitors for a team, they also consider the standard of play of the other regional trial attendees.
