ACC A Division Athletics Carnival 2026 Results
Courage, Commitment and Compassion were on full display at the ACC A Division Athletics Carnival on Wednesday 16 September, as Corpus Christi College athletes delivered an outstanding team performance at WA Athletics Stadium.
Competing against some of Western Australia's strongest athletics programs, Corpus students embraced both the challenging conditions and fierce competition throughout the day. A thrilling battle unfolded between Corpus Christi College, Chisholm Catholic College and St Stephen's School, with positions changing throughout the carnival as athletes fought for every point.
Corpus closed the gap to within four points of Chisholm during the latter stages of competition, but the relay events ultimately proved decisive. Despite the narrow margin, Corpus successfully held off St Stephen's School to secure 6th place overall and maintain ACC A Division status for another year.
A particular highlight was the consistency of the College's boys' squads across all age groups, with the Senior Boys finishing 3rd in their shield competition, an excellent achievement against high-calibre opposition.
