The School’s Track and Field community is a committed and professional
sporting group, with boys being involved in year-round training and competition.
Whether it is as a member of our CAS Squad, or our School’s own
registered ‘Athletics Club’, there are a range of opportunities
for each boy to develop their athletic potential in their chosen discipline.
Many of our coaches have coached athletes to World Championships, with
the level of expertise being the envy of other schools in our Association.
Most importantly, it is the determination each athlete displays when doing
his best in the ‘green and white’ that makes membership of
the Trinity Track and Field community so inspiring and encouraging.

EAP is broken up into three categories:
Junior development (Years 3 - 6) focus on gross motor skills
Senior School (Yr 7 - 12) focus on specific event skills / competition
Trinity PLC Athletic Club (Yr 7 -12, Old Boys) competition opportunities
