Fit for Girls was launched in 2008 by the Youth Sport Trust and sportscotland, with the aim of encouraging school girls to adopt more active lifestyles. During a Fit for Girls workshop, representatives from the 4 Burgh Schools came up with the idea of starting the Fit MAD club in Dumfries. It is the hope that you will support us in our quest to help you and your daughters/mums become fitter—you can do this by joining FIT MAD! |
