Sports uniform

After Sports Training

Uniform for boys going home after sports training is the appropriate school uniform of the day. Normally it is expected that boys will shower after sports training and change into correct school uniform to go home. However, boys being picked up and being taken home by car may wear track suits over their sports clothes with either track shoes or school shoes.

Saturday

The three options are:

a. full school uniform (or summer uniform in terms 1 and 4)
b. blazer uniform (the blazer replaces the suit coat)
c. Scotch College slicker (red track suit pants) with track shoes

Sun protection policy

Due to the danger of ultra-violet rays, boys participating outdoors in the summer sports are required to wear a hat or cap and to apply "sunblock" to exposed areas of the body.

Cricket helmet policy

All Scotch cricketers playing in Year 7, 8, 9 and 10 teams for Scotch must wear a helmet whenever batting (this includes training). Open age cricketers are strongly encouraged to wear a helmet when batting. We strongly recommend that boys purchase their own personally fitted protective headgear. However, two helmets per kit are supplied by Scotch.
