Sports
Camogie
Cross and Passion College has a long history of Camogie and competes in Ulster Colleges 'A' competitions at all levels. We are lucky to have a great supply of talented and enthusiastic players from the Camogie clubs of North Antrim and also dedicated staff who strive to get the best out of them. Such staff include Mrs Kelly, Miss Dowds, Mr Kelly, Mrs Scullion, Miss McLarnon and Mrs Black.
We have won numerous Ulster titles, most recently we have won 3 Ulster Senior A titles in a row and also have won the Ulster Junior A for the last 5 years. During this period of dominance our girls have reached 4 All Ireland A Camogie finals. However our greatest achievement came in 2008 when we won the Junior All-Ireland 'A' Colleges title. This was an unbelievable achievement which can hopefully be repeated some day. Over the last 15 years we have also accumulated a large number of College Allstars with last years winners being Katie Laverty, Meghan McGarry, Aine Magill and Riana McBride.
Hurling
Cross and Passion College has a great tradition of hurling and draws pupils from all of the hurling clubs in North Antrim. CPC enters teams in all Ulster Colleges ‘A’ hurling competitions as follows:
Year 8 - Thompson Cup
Year 9 - McNamee Cup
Year 10 - Gallagher Cup
Year 11 - Leonard Cup
Year 12 - Forresters Cup
Year 13 & 14 - Mageean Cup
There are a number of teachers who generously give of their time to coach the school teams, including Mr Cassidy, Mr Kearney, Mr Campbell, Mr, Grieve, Mr Clarke and Mr McAfee.
Hurling has flourished in CPC over the last number of years and we are the top Hurling college in Ulster. Currently we are the Mageean Cup, Forrester Cup and McNamee Cup Hurling champions. We have accumulated over 30 Ulster A titles in the last 15 years and our greatest achievements has been winning the All Ireland Senior Hurling title on 3 occasions 2009, 2010 and 2015.
Like Camogie we have accumulated a large number of Hurling Allstars with our most recent winners being Seamus McAuley, Conal McGlynn, John McAlister and Michael O Boyle.
Hurling in CPC has a bright future due to the dedication of the pupils and teachers involved and the continuing support from local clubs.

We have won the Ennis Cup on one occasion, 2012, when we beat Loreto College, Coleraine in the final on a scoreline of 1-10 to 2-4.
Hopefully with continued hard work and dedication we can bring more Ulster Colleges football titles to CPC in the near future.

Cross and Passion compete in both the Coleraine and District League and the NEBSSA Competitions for Netball. The teams are coached superbly by Ms Donnelly and Mrs S. McGinley. We are consistently competing for titles in these competitions and are have had a number of girls selected for Northern Ireland trials and development squads in recent years.
