Welcome
Welcome from the Head of Sports Academy
Welcome to the CRCNK Sports Academy, where student-athletes are supported to reach their full potential on the field and in the classroom. Our Academy currently focuses on Soccer, with an exciting Western Bulldogs AFL program launching in 2027, providing students with new pathways to excel in elite sport.
Our Academy is guided by our Catholic values:
- Faith
- Resilience
- Compassion
- Respect
Every student-athlete is supported by a team of dedicated coaches, teachers, and sports professionals, offering personalised training, guidance, and mentorship. Through partnerships with professional clubs and elite programs—such as Celtic Football Club, St Albans Dinamo, and the Western Bulldogs—our athletes gain opportunities to grow, compete, and achieve their goals.
Academic success is a key part of our approach. CRCNK provides tailored support to help students balance sport and study, including curriculum enrichment, career guidance, and mentoring, ensuring students thrive both on and off the field.
At CRCNK Sports Academy, our mission is to develop skilled, confident, and compassionate athletes who embody our values, achieve their goals, and make a positive impact in their communities.
"At our Academy, we are passionate about developing talented athletes while nurturing confident, respectful and resilient young people. We believe every student has the potential to grow, and through hard work, opportunity and support, they can achieve great things both on and off the field. "It is a privilege to be part of each student's journey and to help them become the very best version of themselves."
