Louis Beckert

Senior Sportsman of the Year

“This year's recipient has had a very successful year in his chosen sport at school, provincial, and national level. Louis played an integral part in the success of the College 1st XI hockey side. After the team’s victory in the Melbourne Grammar School international school hockey tournament in April, Louis helped College win the Christchurch Premier Schools’ League and New Zealand Schools’ Rankin Cup. Remarkably both competitions were decided by a penalty shootout and, as the team goalkeeper, he produced a winning performance. Outside of school, he was a member of the national winning Canterbury U18 team and has been selected to attend the New Zealand U18 development training camp.”

In summer, Zach is a talented cricketer who was awarded the Year 10 batting prize and 2nd XI bowling prize at the Cricket Club prize-giving. He is a member of the 2nd XI team and has played Metro cricket at U15 and U17 levels. In winter, he was a member of the 1st XI hockey side that won the Rankin Cup. Outside the two seasons, Zach is also a very accomplished golfer. This year he was a member of the Canterbury U16 side that won the South Island title and a member of the U19 team that won the national title in Cambridge.”
