Snow Sports Success

BGS places 3rd in the State

The Secondary School boys (Divisions 1–3) had an exceptional campaign at the 2025 Victorian Interschools Snow Sports Championships at Mt Buller. Competing across Alpine, Ski Cross, Moguls, Slopestyle, and Snowboard, the boys displayed both individual excellence and strong team depth.

Brighton Grammar achieved three State Champions’ titles, more than 15 Nationals’ qualifications across Divisions 1–3, and placed third overall in Victoria for Secondary Boys’ Schools, a reflection of the strength and consistency of our program from Years 7–12.

 Division 1 (Years 11–12)

  • Leonardo G capped off his final Interschools campaign with a State Championship title in Ski Slopestyle. He also qualified for Nationals in Alpine GS (18th), Ski Cross (8th), and Moguls (6th).
  • Jake C secured Nationals qualification in all three of his Snowboard events – GS, Cross, and Slopestyle – with top 15 finishes across the board.
  • A team bronze in Ski Slopestyle (Leonardo, Corey G, and Harry E) was a further highlight.

Division 2 (Years 9–10)

  • Toby J delivered outstanding results, claiming equal 1st in Ski Cross and 2nd in Alpine GS.
  • Max M performed strongly across multiple disciplines, including 7th in Slopestyle, 7th in Moguls, and key contributions to Nationals-qualifying Alpine and Ski Cross teams.
  • Charlie S, Hudson H, Richard E, and Harrison C also secured Nationals qualification through strong individual and team performances.
  • In Snowboard, Tony Z (11th GS, 18th Cross) and Monty (20th GS) qualified for Nationals, while Spencer M and Elijah contributed to podium results with 3rd place finishes in both Slopestyle and Cross.

 Division 3 (Years 7–8)

  • Jack S was crowned State Champion in Alpine GS and also claimed 2nd in Ski Cross and a top 10 result in Moguls.
  • Jack R and James Mc combined with Jack S to achieve a team silver in Ski Cross.
  • Mason G secured a top 10 finish in Moguls, while Hunter A contributed to a team podium in Alpine GS.

Next Steps

It was also wonderful to have both the Headmaster and the Head of Secondary School present on Friday and Saturday to witness the boys’ achievements firsthand. Their commitment and visible support were greatly appreciated by the boys, families, and the wider Snow Sports community.

Our Secondary squad now turns its attention to the Australian Interschools Snowsports Championships (2–7 September at Mt Buller), where team members will compete against competitors from top schools around the country.

Congratulations to all Division 1–3 competitors for their outstanding efforts, families and staff – Cindy van Dijk, Troy Gendala, Michael Hilton and George Neophytou.

The boys have once again raised the standard for Brighton Grammar Snowsports and we are extremely proud of their achievements.

 Mathew Steed
Head of Snow Sports
