Structure
There are three trimesters of sport. During the trimester each school plays a single round robin against all of the other schools. After seven weeks of competition, premierships are awarded to the teams with the most season points. Traditionally, schools Ashgrove, Iona and St Laurences are successful in the Rugby Union Competition followed closely by Padua and Villanova who always put up a fight against these schools. Villanova and Padua always field strong Soccer teams. In the Track and Field competition Iona are very successful winning the past six in a row.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“Women over fifty already form one of the largest groups in the population structure of the western world. As long as they like themselves, they will not be an oppressed minority. In order to like themselves they must reject trivialization by others of who and what they are. A grown woman should not have to masquerade as a girl in order to remain in the land of the living.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“I’m a Sunday School teacher, and I’ve always known that the structure of law is founded on the Christian ethic that you shall love the Lord your God and your neighbor as yourself—a very high and perfect standard. We all know the fallibility of man, and the contentions in society, as described by Reinhold Niebuhr and many others, don’t permit us to achieve perfection.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“In the extent and proper structure of the Union, therefore, we behold a republican remedy for the diseases most incident to republican government.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
