John Landy Sportsperson Award

Jai Rowley - Year 12

Throughout his years at SFCC Melton, Jai has demonstrated excellent sportsmanship, leadership and role modelling at various SACCSS Events.

This year alone, Jai captained the senior volleyball team to a Division 1 championship, was recognised with the Peer Award at the senior volleyball grand final and gave up his lunchtimes to assist the Year 7 volleyball team from Cobblebank with skill development in their first Premier League season.

Jai displays the qualities that create great sportspeople, such as integrity, leadership and dedication to the team, and we congratulate him on receiving the John Landy Award in his final year at St Francis Catholic College.

Lauren Martin - Year 11

Lauren has been a strong and influential sportswoman at SFCC Melton.

She has been a prominent member of the junior and senior netball teams and represented the College in AFL, tennis and hockey.

Lauren has been a fantastic role model, inspiring younger students to participate in sports. She was appointed a student coach for the Year 7 netball team in 2022 (for which she received significant praise for her efforts) and attended this year's SACCSS Athletics Carnival as a student helper.

Lauren has displayed a high standard of leadership and commitment to sport at the College and we congratulate her on receiving the John Landy award this year.
