Message from the NSWCCC Tennis Convener On behalf of NSW Combined Catholic Colleges and the Diocese of Bathurst, I would like to warmly welcome you all to Bathurst for the 2018 NSWCCC Tennis Teams Championships. Many people have worked together to make today s event possible in particular Linda Densmore from the Bathurst Diocese and Kym Skerritt, the NSW Combined Catholic Colleges Executive officer. As well as those from the above groups, I would also like to acknowledge the efforts of NSWCCC Executive. Thank you to the teachers and parents for all the time and effort that has no doubt gone into the preparation of the respective players and the organisation required to get them to such lengthy distances in the name of sport. Players, if you have not already done so, be sure to show your appreciation. Events such as this are traditionally marked by an obvious spirit of healthy, friendly competition, and every one involved should ensure that today is no different. Players, especially, must strive to represent their family, their school and their diocese/association with the pride, respect and dignity that has so often been on display in the past.
