Sport
Rowing is considered by many to be the school's most celebrated sport, although a subculture considers it overhyped. The Ballarat Associated Schools (BAS) crews compete in the annual "Head of the Lake" (also known simply as "Boat Race"), which has recently been held on the Barwon River. In 2012 the race returned to Lake Wendouree in Ballarat.
In cricket, it won the BAS premiership for three out of the last five years and a Victorian Championship in 2003-2004.

Famous quotes containing the word sport:
“I wish glib and indiscriminate critics of industrialists had some conception of the problems that have to be met by factory management.... General condemnation of employers is a favorite indoor sport of the uninformed intelligentsia who assume the role of lance- bearers for labor.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
