“Glendowie College will provide the sporting opportunities, quality service and facilities/equipment that promote student participation in organised sport.” GDC Sports Mission Statement
Glendowie College’s co-curricular sports programme will offer as wide a range of sporting opportunities to students as feasible and the college will encourage personal excellence in all co-curricular sporting and physical activities. All students will be encouraged to be involved in co-curricular sport throughout their time at Glendowie College.
Information for Parents
The college cannot absorb the full costs of the sports programme. It is necessary to charge a fee to each sport for each participating student.
In general, sports fees cover the:
- Cost of central venue hire for inter-collegiate sport
- Purchase of sports equipment
- Entry into the regional competition with other schools and payment of affiliation fees to organisations,
- Expenses such as referee costs and some team travel costs.

Our Sports Strategic Plan and Procedures provide the direction and guidelines for the implementation and on-going development of a quality co-curricular sports programme.
We are looking forward to a busy and successful year of sport and would welcome parental involvement in the form of coaching / managing teams, helping with transport or just cheering on the side-lines.
