A commitment to training, teamwork and fostering talent, sees CHAC consistently competing to be the Number 1 Sport school in the TAS Competition. We are recognised as one of the most successful and most engaged Colleges in our inter-school sporting competition.
Students who have a high skill level in a chosen sport may elect to trial at the District level. If successful in making a District team, the student would then compete at the Metropolitan East Regional level, and could progress to State level.
CHAC has been involved in non TAS sports in the past including Australian Rules Football and Girls’ Football.
