The QGSSSA is proud to partner with IMPI Sportswear to deliver the IMPI Sportswear Ignition Series—a six-week competitive pre-season designed to ignite passion, sharpen performance and prepare students for the QGSSSA Track & Field Championships.
Held in the lead-up to the Championships, this series provides a valuable opportunity for athletes to gain competition experience, trial different events and elevate their training. It also serves as a key platform for selection into school Track & Field teams, with each meet offering targeted events, performance feedback and a fun, inclusive atmosphere.
At the heart of this partnership is a shared vision to foster the growth and empowerment of female athletics across our member schools. Together with IMPI Sportswear, we are committed to creating an environment where every student—regardless of their ability or experience—feels encouraged, celebrated and supported.
The IMPI Sportswear Ignition Series is about more than just results; it’s about building confidence, embracing challenges and discovering the joy of sport. Through participation, students develop not only athletic skill but also resilience, teamwork and a lifelong love of movement.
