Congratulations to the Selwyn 2XI who won their division in the Senior Open Boys Cricket 40 over competition. The team showcased Selwyn values, with strong teamwork, support of each other and high levels of effort throughout the season, culminating in wins over Howick and then a hitherto unbeaten Auckland Grammar side. All the boys made significant contributions through the season and showed high levels of sportsmanship and character and refused to give up. The final was a nail biter with critical wickets seeing Selwyn defend a total of 177.

The Selwyn College Boys Volleyball team has made history with an incredible run at the North Island Satellite Volleyball Tournament, finishing as the runners-up after an intense final against Division 1 powerhouse, Rosmini College. The boys played with heart and determination, pushing Rosmini to three sets before ultimately falling 18-25, 25-17, and 15-10.

Their journey was nothing short of spectacular. Despite being a first timer on the tournament - the team had a strong first day, finishing second in their pool and securing a spot in the quarterfinals. They then delivered a stunning upset against Papakura High School, earning a place in the semi-finals. With their eyes set on the championship match, the boys went on to defeat Kristin School in a thrilling, hard-fought two-set battle.

Selwyn’s success was driven by an outstanding team effort. Offensively, Sean Wilson, Leonardo Pecsy, and Filippo Rinaldi led the charge with powerful and strategic hits. On the defensive end, Atticus Iti, Harold Ng, and setter Shayan Aminzadeh anchored the team with relentless energy and precision. Hoa Nguyen, Gab Espenilla, and Pax Wong provided crucial support, ensuring the team’s cohesion and resilience throughout the tournament.

This remarkable performance marks the first time in Selwyn College history that the boys’ volleyball team has reached the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals in this tournament. Their dedication, teamwork, and passion for the sport have set a new standard and inspired the next generation of Selwyn athletes.

Congratulations to the team on this phenomenal achievement! The future of Selwyn volleyball is brighter than ever! Massive thank you to the best team manager, Kristen De Wet for being with us throughout this journey.

The first half of the Boys First XI Cricket season comes to an end and what a thrill it was. Selwyn picking up 4 crucial wins from 9 games.

Usually you’d say Thursday’s Selwyn Boys 1st X CricketI win over Rosmini was one of the most extraordinary games in recent years - but at the moment this team is making a habit of taking games to the wire…and on many occasions winning them!!

The game ended like this - Rosmini needed 4 runs to win from the final over with just 1 wicket in hand. The over was bowled by Milan Kharel. Two dot balls were followed by 1 run, another run (now 2 to win), another dot ball and on the last ball wicket-keeper Keshan Korala whips the bails off to give Selwyn College the most memorable of victories. Celebrations were joyous at the game but actually stretched across the Harbour bridge to the Selwyn College offices and even other parts of the globe as parents, students and teachers watched the score update on the Play HQ app.

On the day Selwyn batted first scoring 215 being bowled out. Showing nerves of steel on this particular day not only did Milan Kharel bowl the final over he also scored a dominant 79 runs off just 66 balls. This half season Milan has averaged 37 runs an innings at the most imposing strike rate of 102 runs per 100 balls. He has repeatedly taken the game away from other sides, not only with the number of runs but the speed at which he's scored them - a testament to his work ethic as Milan practices hitting Cricket balls more than most.

With the ball it was a mixed bag but the boys stayed strong to the end. Once again it was Milan Kharel who made a huge difference - 3 overs, 2 wickets for 2 runs. The skipper Max Randall continued his excellent recent wicket taking form - 10 overs, 3 wickets for 36 runs and Aahan Milant finished with a tidy 10 overs 1 wicket for 34.

A completely gripping and utterly compelling day of Cricket. Selwyn College taking the win over Rosmini College by 1 run.

An enormous thank you to parents who in many cases had the day off work to help make the game happen!!

Tournament Recap - 3x3 Basketball 🏆🏆

Congratulations to our senior 3x3 boys Basketball team who won the final of the Zone 1 3x3 Open grade this morning!!

After finishing with a 5-2 record in pool play, enough to finish in 3rd place, they faced a tough playoff schedule.

This started with beating Pukekohe High in the quarter finals 16-15, followed by another close match against Birkenhead in the semi finals, where we prevailed 11-8.

The final proved to be the toughest test yet, facing St Peters College. In a see-saw encounter, both teams finished locked at 11-11 at full time. A 3-pointer was enough to decide the game, finishing 14-12.

Congratulations to , Alfred Casiple, , .r, and .

The Selwyn 2nd XI won their semi in the senior open A grade last Saturday, and will now play Auckland Grammar in the final this Saturday. It was an outstanding team effort with all 9 boys contributing to the team result. The highlight was Caleb Swan taking the team’s first 5-wicket bag of the season, finishing with 6 for 18. Top run scorer was Josh Aitkenhead with 40 off just 27 balls. Good luck to the boys for the final!!

Another excellent win for Selwyn College Boys 1st XI this weekend, this time over Botany Downs Secondary College.

Selwyn won the toss and asked Botany to bat first.

In what was a very slow Botany innings, skipper Max Randall continued his good run of form with the ball taking 3 wickets for just 14 off his 10 overs. Divesh Kamaleswaren also picked up 3 wickets for his second week in a row, his 10 overs going for 26. Ruben Fredrickson had a go with the ball this week and also enjoyed his 7 overs taking 2 wickets for a miserly 12 runs.

The star of the show with the bat was Year 13 student Milan Kharel who rewrote the rules on batting for time and simply thrashed his way to 65 off just 50 balls. Along the way he hit 12 4's. Of note is his last 3 innings against BDSC, Milan has scored of 48, 49 and now 65. Chipping in as well was Aahaan Milant with 23.

Not the perfect performance but more than enough to get the job done, this brace of victories consolidates Selwyns place of 5th on the table.

From the Pitcaithly field Selwyn College (7/131) beat Botany Downs Secondary College (9/130) by 3 wickets.

❤️🖤 Good luck to all our summer tournament teams for next week ❤️🖤
