GIRLS IN SPORT

No.1 Kingstown Girl Guides Company

World Thinking Day Sports Meet
 THEME OF SPORTS

 Exercise and sports participation has long been established as an important factor
in reducing the risk of many physical problems such as cardiovascular disease and
obesity.

 By giving more Girl Guides the opportunity to try a much wider variety of sports
we will be able to increase participation levels, widen the talent pool and help
them lead a healthier, more active lifestyle.

 The Patrol system in guiding gives each girl the opportunity to be an active
member which allows girls to hone their skills
