The quintet were stand-out performers for their Diocesan teams after playing matches against Diocesan teams from Lismore, Broken Bay, Bathurst, Armidale and Maitland-Newcastle.
Holy Family Primary School principal Denise Gersbach is thrilled at the students’ achievements.
“Polding is a half-state Catholic team so selection is a very high achievement,” she said.

This will be his first year representing Polding in the sport, where he has been selected as a forward.
Quinn will compete at the NSW PSSA carnival at Armidale from August 15 to 17.
