Interschool sport

Interschool sport provides students with the opportunity to participate in a structured sport competition which is played between schools.

Outcomes

The interschool sport program should enhance the physical activity component of the school's health and wellbeing curriculum program.
Schools implement a program that reflects the school and local community's needs and opportunities.
Each school sport district should develop a competition suitable to the district size, remoteness of member schools, staff resources and historical experience.

Resources

The following personnel and groups can provide assistance in developing school sport programs:

School sport district secretaries and committees
Regional school sport officers and their regional school sport boards
Queensland School Sport Council of Management committee
Primary and secondary sport-specific committees
Local community sporting clubs
Department of Communities, Sport and Recreation and community services advisors
