Introduction to Interschool Sport

 

Term 1 Information

Welcome to another exciting year of MGC sport – we are looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible involved in interschool sport throughout the year, and in particular want to invite our new students (Year 7 and above) to get involved!

Interschool sport is optional, and we compete with other schools in our Division and beyond through School Sport Victoria pathway (https://www.ssv.vic.edu.au ). During Terms 1-3 four team sports are offered, and year levels are allocated a day on which teams from all the schools in the Division meet up for some friendly and competitive inter school competition. Winners from those days progress to Regional finals, and if successful on to the State Finals.

Melbourne Girls College has a proud history of success in a range of sports across all year levels, and are fortunate to have a large population of talented students who represent us. Our primary objective however is to encourage involvement amongst ALL students regardless of ability level, and as such commit to supporting as many students who wish to participate as possible. Trials for our representative teams are advertised via email for Years 9-12, and via a sign up sheet at the PE office for Years 7 and 8 after Week 3. Students will be notified through COMPASS when trials will be beginning for a particular sport, so keep and eye out for it in your news feed, and if you love a particular sport come and have a go!
