Facilities College’s playing fields, known as the Christ’s College Cricket Ground, are located in South Hagley Park. This complex comprises two rugby fields, three football fields, five turf cricket pitches, and a grass net training facility for cricket. On campus, College has a new Upper West facility housing two full-sized basketball courts, teaching spaces, and a strength and conditioning area. The gym space will also be used for badminton, table tennis, and volleyball. Street shoes may not be worn on the gymnasium floor under any circumstances. Do not take food or drink into the gymnasium. There is also a five-lane 25m heated indoor swimming pool. When using the pool, students must behave sensibly and pay attention to the pool rules (posted in the pool building) at all times. Swimming is only allowed when there is supervision available. Do not walk to the pool in bare feet, or take food or drink into the pool building. Upper is used as a track and field facility in summer and a rugby field in winter, and an all-year-round facility for teaching and learning. College has its own rowing shed at Kerr’s Reach and a rowing erg room at College. Other facilities are sourced on an as-required basis.
Sport Code of Conduct College strongly supports the principles of good sportsmanship and fair play. Your appearance and behaviour, both on and off the field, should be of the highest standard. • Wear the correct gear to practices and matches • Be punctual • Abide by the referee’s (or umpire’s) decisions without complaint or argument • Avoid inappropriate behaviour – such as swearing, fighting or arguing – even when provoked • Racial abuse or harassment will not be tolerated • Show loyalty to your team, captain, coach and College • Play with a will to win, but play fairly
