PARADE COLLEGE
HIGH PERFORMANCE SPORT

At Parade College, our vision for High Performance Sport is to cultivate an environment where every student has the opportunity to realise their potential. We are committed to providing a high standard of coaching, training, and access to contemporary sports science practices, including strength and conditioning, rehabilitation, nutrition, sport psychology, and game analysis.

We acknowledge that no selection process can be entirely perfect, but we strive to ensure a fair and comprehensive evaluation of all students. The following criteria are considered when selecting students for the High-Performance program:

  • Commitment to the Program: Demonstrating dedication and consistent effort in all aspects of the program.
  • Coachability: Willingness to learn, adapt, and respond positively to feedback and instruction.
  • High-Performing character traits: Displaying resilience, accountability, discipline, teamwork, motivation, concentration, adaptability.
  • Behaviour: Upholding exemplary conduct both on and off the field.
  • Athletic ability and potential: Demonstrating excellent results across a variety of fitness tests or significant development in repeat testing.
  • Performance: Delivering consistent execution of technical skill, as well as displaying tactical awareness through appropriate decision-making during training, trials, and competition.

This comprehensive approach ensures we identify and support students who embody the values and standards of Parade College in ACC and competition and the High Performance Program.
