Radford Raptors crowned Northside champions at Sue Geh Cup
The Years 5 and 6 Radford Raptors put on an outstanding performance at Basketball ACT’s annual Sue Geh Cup and claimed the title of Northside champions.
Beyond their technical abilities on the court, the students displayed great spirit, encouraging and supporting both their teammates and opponents alike.
Thank you to the parents and students who came out in droves to encourage our young players, and to Radford College student and 2025 Basketball captain, Jessi, for her coaching support.
With this victory, both the Years 5 and 6 boys’ and girls’ teams have qualified to compete at the ACT finals this November.
Cooper chosen for all-Australian team
During the school holidays, Cooper (Year 11), a member of the GWS Giants Academy, competed in the 2025 AFL under 16 national championships. This highly competitive event, attended by numerous AFL club scouts searching for future draft prospects, showcased the nation’s best emerging talent.
Cooper played a starring role for the GWS team, earning the title of Most Valuable Player (MVP) and securing selection in the prestigious all-Australian team – an incredible achievement and a testament to his skill, dedication and hard work.
Congratulations, Cooper, on this outstanding recognition!
Tom Green Cup
After claiming the title of Northside champions, the Radford College Years 7 to 9 AFL boys' team earned their place in the AFL ACT finals for the prestigious Tom Green Cup.
The team, made up predominantly of Year 8 students, faced tough competition from St Mary MacKillop College and Holy Spirit College. Throughout the day, the boys displayed impressive skills, teamwork and determination, matching their opponents in effort and spirit.
Even though the cup didn't come home to Radford, the experience provided valuable lessons and an opportunity for the players to test themselves against some of the best school AFL talent in the ACT and the South Coast.
