Canterbury College (Cup), King’s Christian College (Shield) and St James College (Boy’s) have claimed Vicki Wilson gold for 2023, with Somerset College (Cup), Canterbury College (Shield) and Carmel College (Boy’s) bringing home the silverware.

A cohort of 500+ athletes from over 90 teams descended on Nissan Arena for the two-day competition, which was live streamed by KommunityTV.
