WINTER SPORTS DAY – BRENDAN RYAN (‘91) CUP

The forecast for heavy rain didn’t discourage the commitment and enthusiasm of stalwarts as players and supporters turned up to the Winter Sports Day on 17 July.

We were delighted to see the trophy’s namesake, Brendan Ryan (’91), arrive to catch up with mates and assist with presentations.

TOBA was triumphant overall, with wins in cross country, hockey, rugby and soccer. TC won the football for the first time since 2012.

The medal for TC Spirit was presented to Adrian Di Carlo (’89) by the inaugural winner, Bryan Breheny (‘04). Adrian is a true TC stalwart –an Old Boy, current parent, TOBA Executive Committee Secretary and long-time contributor to TC and TOBA. Adrian competed in the TOBA soccer team against his son, Anton.

A special mention goes to Adrian Cantwell (’84) who was TOBA’s oldest competitor on the day, competing in the cross country.

The TOBA football team remembered their mates, Justin Little (’92) and Tristan Berentzen (’91) who are no longer with us but loved playing at this day.

A big thank you goes to:

• Brendan Ryan (’91), the trophy’s namesake

• TC Director of Sport, Ryan Lockyer, and captains, coaches, managers, umpires and referees of both TOBA and TC teams

• Dayne Whalan, Rhys Spedding, Max Blair (’19) and team for their assistance and maintaining Trinity’s impeccable grounds

• St John Ambulance

• Tom Campbell, Total Sports Photography

• Alan Van Nieuwburg, Caffeine Machine

• Brendan Molony (’65), David Tobin (’87), Rob Daniel (’64) and Rob Jurjevich (’90) for their expertise on the barbecue and selling merchandise

Thank you to everyone who attended this wet, but most enjoyable day for our community!
