‘Live Your Goals’ Event
All S1 girls will participate in an event called ‘Live Your Goals’ on Wednesday 17 June.
Over the coming months the pupils will receive input from sports men and women who compete in a range of sports and also people who work in the sports industry (broadcasters, journalists etc). The aim of the programme is to encourage more girls into sports or to consider the possibility of working in sport. It is hoped that this will raise awareness of the job opportunities available to them and that they do not have to play sport at a high level to be involved in sport.
