Southern Area Schools Tournament on our back doorstep!

Southern Area Schools Tournament on our back doorstep!

2025 was our year to hold the annual Southern Area Schools' Tournament over a jam packed three days.

Three incredible days of sports and activities shared with six other schools – an event like this doesn’t happen without a strong and supportive community.

TCAS extends our heartfelt thanks to every single person who played a part: those who billeted students, prepared food, refereed, coached, and cheered from the sidelines. Your contributions made this event a true success.

Behind the scenes, countless hours of planning and effort went into making it all happen. A special and enormous thank you goes to Sarah Cairns and Nat Harrex – your passion, dedication, and tireless work were the driving force behind this tournament. We’re incredibly lucky to have you - you truly are a force to be reckoned with!

To our amazing students – whether you were competing, helping with meals, running errands, or pitching in wherever needed – thank you. It was inspiring to see you shine both on and off the field.

Congratulations to all the teams who placed and to those selected for nationals. We are so proud of you!
