The ceremony highlighted talented students from all year groups, who have excelled in PE and sports during the school year.
Awards handed out on the night included Sports Performers of the Year, Sporting Excellence Awards and Team of the Year.
Team of the Year was a tough decision again this year, due to the fact that St Benedict's had three teams become County Champions throughout the season. These were the Year 7 Girls Football team, the Year 10 Boys Rugby team, and the Year 11 Boys Rugby team.
The winners this year had to be the Year 11 Boys Rugby team, who as well as becoming County Champions, were also crowned National Champions – a first for St Benedict's!

Another notable winner was Tyce Walmsley, who was awarded Sports Personality of the Year. This season he captained the Year 11 Rugby team scoring the winning point, and has also captained the England Community Lions team.
Mr Harrison, head of PE, said: "It has been another bumper year in sport for St Benedict's, and it was lovely to celebrate the students and their achievements. Our students should be very proud of all of their accomplishments, and we look forward to seeing what they achieve next.'

British Open to use Spidercam technology for the first time at a professional golf event

The 2025 British Open will feature a television innovation that will be used for the first time in pro golf: the Spidercam. The R&A announced this week it'll be a "world-first for golf" that will bring TV viewers closer to the action that before. On Monday, Todd Lewis from Golf Channel posted on social video some video of the Spidercam going through some reps. He described it as "a camera supported by four cables commonly used in football broadcasts." What is the British Open spidercam? As Lewis mentioned, it's been used in football but also in rugby and cricket in the UK and will complement existing technology. "Suspended above the 18th green, spectacular aerial views and unique angles will bring to life the natural undulations of the hole and short shots around the green before the greatest walk in golf is captured as the Champion Golfer of the Year is crowned on Sunday," says the R&A. How and where to watch the British Open Championship 2025 The first chance to see this new Spidercam will likely be on Peacock, which is first up with the live coverage, as the streaming service comes on from 1:30 a.m. ET until 4 a.m. ET on Thursday. USA then takes over with a marathon stretch from 1 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. This will be the same schedule for Friday. On Saturday, USA goes from 5 a.m. ET to 7 a.m. then NBC takes over from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. ET. On Sunday, it's USA from 4 a.m. ET to 2 p.m. and NBC from 2 p.m. ET to 2 p.m. ET.

Rare $2 coloured coins Aussies can find in their change: ‘Keep an eye out'

Aussies who pay with cash have the chance to find two rare $2 coloured coins. The Royal Australian Mint has teamed up with Rugby Australia to release two Wallabies and Wallaroos coins. Designed by the Mint's Adam Ball, the $2 coins feature the team's official logo and colours, with a stadium beneath and two athletes above. The obverse features the portrait of King Charles. From today, Aussies across the country can receive the special coins in their change when paying with cash at participating Rebel Sports stores. RELATED Rare $2 coin worth 10 times more due to this detail: 'Lucky to find' Aussie tradie loses $110,000 house deposit due to small detail $105,000 superannuation warning over growing 'mini-retirement' trend Royal Australian Mint acting CEO Emily Martin said the coin release was a nod to 150 years of Rugby Union history with the Wallabies test series against the British and Irish Lions, and the lead up to the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup in England. 'Whether you're a die-hard rugby supporter or a collector, this is your chance to own a piece of sporting history,' she said. Rugby Australia CEO Phil Waugh said the coins symbolised two key events and were a 'true collector's item' given the Lions only visit every 12 years and the Women's Rugby World Cup is held every four years. 'It's a significant year for Rugby in Australia and these coins honour each team as they compete in pinnacle events at the highest level on the global stage,' he said. Waugh encouraged Aussies to 'keep an eye out for a coin at their local Rebel Sport store'. How can I get the coins? The $2 coloured coins can exclusively be found in your change when paying with cash at participating Rebel stores. They are available from today for a limited time until stocks last. A two-coin collector set is also available for purchase, which features a slightly different design for the coloured inner circle. This set is available to purchase through Rebel online and through the Mint's call centre, shop and eShop. It is available from 8:30am on Thursday, July 17, for $17.99. Warning as coins listed for 10 times more Some sellers on eBay have pre-emptively listed the $2 coins that will go into circulation for $49.45 for the pair. The Mint has recommended only purchasing through its authorised channels. "There is no guarantee on quality or authenticity of products purchased from unauthorised sellers," the Royal Australian Mint spokesperson previously told Yahoo Finance. "Any listings prior to the official release date are considered illegitimate."Sign in to access your portfolio
