Vision & Values
Where we are heading
Proposed vision and values — not yet formally adopted as organisational policy
To contribute to a sporting culture in which endurance, perseverance, personal development and respect are valued, and where appropriate opportunities for physical activity encourage healthier routines and constructive community participation.
01
Perseverance
Meaningful progress comes from consistent effort, patience and the will to keep learning.
In practice: choosing a sustainable plan and sticking with it, rather than chasing a single result.
02
Discipline
Responsible preparation, commitment to agreed goals and good habits.
In practice: arriving prepared, respecting schedules, and following through on commitments.
03
Respect
Participants, volunteers, organisers and neighbours deserve fair and respectful treatment.
In practice: courtesy on shared routes, and listening before judging.
04
Teamwork
Sport creates room for cooperation, shared learning and mutual encouragement.
In practice: waiting at the top of the climb, and sharing what you know.
05
Personal development
Confidence, responsibility and resilience grow through appropriate sporting activity.
In practice: setting personal goals that stretch without breaking.
06
Safety
Preparation, suitable equipment and respect for safety requirements come first.
In practice: checking conditions and turning back when it is the right call.
07
Inclusion
Welcoming participation that recognises different abilities, experiences and needs.
In practice: offering options for different levels rather than one standard.
08
Integrity
Organisational information, achievements and public statements must be accurate and supported by facts.
In practice: reporting results honestly and correcting mistakes openly.
09
Accountability
Taking responsibility for decisions, communication and conduct.
In practice: making it easy to ask questions and request corrections.
