Sport in schools

School sport and physical education play an important role in sustaining the health and well being of students.

The Department of Education and Training (DET) has contracted School Sport WA to safely and efficiently manage interschool, interstate and international competitive sporting opportunities for students attending government schools.

What is School Sport WA?

School Sport WA is an association of teachers whose principal purpose is to promote, organise and coordinate sporting competitions for school children at a local, regional and interstate level.

The extent and intensity of the competition is varied and based on the experience, skill level, maturity and interest of the student.

Teachers in schools contribute voluntary time on behalf of the Association to ensure the success of the various competitions.

For further information on the services provided including contact details, sporting opportunities and a calendar of sporting events, please visit the School Sport WA website.
