State team selection and nomination process

On this page

    State team selection information including trial details and the nomination process is available on each specific sports page from the choose a sport page. The nomination process must be completed before the sport’s first selection trial or by the date shown on the specific sports page.

    Who can nominate

    Nominations will only be accepted from students attending schools affiliated with School Sport SA.

    Selection and trials

    Nominees should possess well-above average ability and experience. Any selection in a team must have the principal's endorsement.
