NSW Pride Go Down In State Of Origin

Queensland dominated the State of Origin hockey rivalry with New South Wales after Brisbane Blaze won both the women’s and men’s matches in an action packed double header at the Sydney Olympic Park Hockey Centre.

Billed as a State of Origin showdown and featuring a plethora of current and aspiring Hockeyroos talent, the contest did not disappoint. In the women’s match, NSWIS scholarship holder Grace Stewart scored the lone goal for NSW Pride, who lost the match 1-4. The men’s team also went down 1-5 with NSWIS scholarship holders Flynn Ogilvie and  Ehren Hazell unable to capitalise on moments of brilliance.

Jessica and Natalia Win Paddle Awards

The paddling community shone bright tonight at the 2022 Paddle Australia Awards, with a gala event in Sydney celebrating achievements over the past 12 months.

Olympic gold medallist, world champion and NSWIS scholarship holder Jessica Fox won the Athlete of the Year (Olympic Disciplines), at the 2022 Paddle Australia Awards, adding yet another accolade to her ever growing collection.

Jessica was recognised for her impressive 2022 season that saw her win five world cup gold medals, and three world championships medals (one gold and two silver), plus the overall women’s K1 world cup title.

“It is an honour to win this award and it has been such a great season for me,” Jessica said.

“I had some ups and downs, but taking the overall world cup win (kayak) and backing up the world title in the kayak cross (formerly known as extreme slalom), I was really happy with my performances.

“It’s also left me hungry to improve on the areas that I can see there is still more to learn and more for me to give,” she said.

Fellow NSWIS scholarship holder Natalia Drobot won the Junior Paddler of the Year Award.
