Our Symbol

The Iconic “FIST” symbolises our competitor’s grit and determination that each and every one of our athletes puts in to reach that elusive finishing line.
The FIST is a symbol of strength, a symbol of solidarity and support towards other competitors. It is also used as a salute to express unity, and defiance, or resistance to giving in.

The five S’s of sports training are: stamina, speed, strength, skill, and spirit; but the greatest of these is spirit.

Ken Doherty
Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer.

Ted Williams
When you’ve got something to prove, there’s nothing greater than a challenge.

Terry Bradshaw
Do you know what my favorite part of the game is? The opportunity to play.

Mike Singletary
I hated every minute of training, but I said, don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.
