At Hillcrest Normal we provide a range of extra sporting opportunities for any child to be a part of. The success of our sports programme relies greatly on the participation of many parents. Below are some of the sports we provide and who to contact.

Swimming - The School runs a comprehensive swimming programme but for swimmers who would like to compete we have a very strong swimming club based out of our school pool. Runs in Terms 1 and 4

Rugby - Our School has a proud tradition of a strong 10-a-side rugby team run by Mr Andrew Peart that competes in tournaments as well as a competition that runs on Tuesday afternoons. Most of the  players also play club rugby for local clubs. Runs in Term 2 and 3 

Netball - Our school has netball teams from Years 3-6. Organised by Mrs Lynette Townsend and various coaches the teams are provided with the opportunity to play after school or in the weekend depending on their grade. Runs in Term 2 and 3
