Guiding Principles

We acknowledge the vision and initiatives of women for sport in girls schools in the past century. The great heritage they established inspires a continuing commitment to the promotion of sport for girls. We recognise that women and girls are not an homogenous group and with differing social, cultural, economic and physical backgrounds and circumstances they face a variety of barriers to full participation in sport, recreation and physical activity.

Therefore, looking to the next century, a group of Melbourne Independent Girls Schools have combined to develop a new organisation, GSV, whose guiding principles are:

  • The promotion of girls sport;
  • Enhanced opportunities for participation in elite, competitive and recreational sport and physical activity;
  • Accessibility to a diverse range of programs;
  • The fostering of individual talents, team spirit and commitment;
  • The pursuit of excellence;
  • A commitment to the highest standard of ethical behaviour;
  • A commitment to the promotion of health and well being of all girls.

Girls Sport Victoria appreciates the generous sponsorship of Singleton Ogilvy Mather in the design of the logo.
