It also provides examples of sporting heritage programmes currently offered to support the curriculum in museum and sport settings across the country The physicality and accessibility of sport cuts through barriers of language, religion, class and culture. There is growing evidence that sporting heritage, taught as part of the school curriculum, is a very effective medium for motivating under-achieving pupils. Whilst the main academic focus of sporting heritage is history – most pertinently local history – it can also provide an effective springboard to cross-curricular learning and to sports participation. Many of our sports clubs were founded in the 19th century and, from Premier League football clubs to village cricket and rugby clubs, are often the best examples of living history in their communities, regularly attracting more people onto their premises and more interest in their fortunes than any other local organisations of comparable age.

  • Fair Play the Story of Rugby at the Olympics the Rugby and Olympic Values
    Fair Play The Story of Rugby at the Olympics The Rugby and Olympic values Which Rugby and Olympic values are the same or similar? Is Rugby a good fit with the Olympics? Did you know Rugby has been at five Olympics? Rugby at the 1900 Olympics in Paris Three teams competed in the Rugby tournament. A French representative team defeated a team from the German city of Frankfurt and Moseley Wanderers from England. The Moseley team had played a full game of Rugby in England the day before they made the journey to Paris. They arrived in the morning, played the match in the afternoon and were back in their home country by the next morning. The proposed game between the British and German sides was cancelled and both are credited as silver medalists. The Franco-Haitian centre Constantin Henriquez de Zubiera became the first black gold medalist. Three months earlier he had competed in the tug of war. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1900_Summer_Olympics Rugby at the 1908 Olympics in London The host Great Britain was represented by Cornwall, the 1908 county champion. Defending Olympic champions France withdrew, leaving Australasia, represented by the Australia national Rugby union team as the only other remaining entrant. The interest in the Olympic Rugby final was only lukewarm with the final being held in the last week of Games that had taken place over six months. In 1908 Twickenham Stadium was still being built. The match was played at the White City Stadium, London, on an area alongside the Olympic Games swimming pool which measured 110 yards in length with a long line of netting stretched beside to catch flying balls.

  • Hockey Alberta: Provincials
    January = Provincial Zone playdowns + Tournaments + League play. January also means that we are over halfway done our 2016-2017 season. HOCKEY ALBERTA: PROVINCIALS Hockey Alberta has awarded the Bantam C Provincial Tournament to the CNN Spurs, and will be played in both Gibbons & Bon Accord on March 17-19th. This is an exciting opportunity for CNN Spurs to raise money for the association as well as provide our Bantam Team an opportunity to compete at the Provincial level. Stay tuned for more information as the host committee gets the ball rolling over the next few weeks. 1 | P a g e Lockey Christie knows a thing or two about hockey, especially when it comes to the making of the CNN Spurs. Lockey has played the role as a CNN coach, a CNN dad, a CNN spectator and now a CNN Grandpa to Avery Pattison (Atom), Gavin Pattison & Cameron Dureault (both Initiation) Lockey can remember when Gibbons and Bon Accord joined to form one association. “Back then the towns did not get along, especially when it came to hockey. When we joined them it brought the two communities together and better hockey.” He remembers they “wanted the name of the new association to be associated with the Junior Broncos. That is how the idea of the Spurs came up.” The original logo was a cowboy boot and a spur. Some would say it was fitting for the two small rural communities. Since then the original logo at center ice may have been changed. But the Grandpas standing along the railings in the stands watching the new generation of CNN hockey players remember the original white and blue and the making of the CNN Spurs.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 093 803 SP 008 164 TITLE Interpreting Physical Education. Suggestions for Teachers and Supervisors. INSTITUTION President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, Washington, D.C. NOTE 9p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$1.50 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS Athletic Programs; *Community Support; *Physical Education; *School Community Relationship.; Teacher Influence; *Teacher Role ABSTRACT An outstanding physical education prognam usually enjoys the support of the community, and this support will, in turn, enhance the program. It is the responsibility of the physical education teacher and supervisor to develop community support for his program through various public relations efforts. Because students are the primary interface between a school program and the public, it is important that the physical education teacher establish a good relationship with his students. A goal-oriented program and the enthusiasm of students are the primary public relations tools of the physical education teacher and supervisor. Another important method of gaining public support is through the mass media--newspapers, radio, and TV. Reports of programs and the accomplishment of their objectives are interesting and desirable news in most communities. A third way of promoting school physical education programs is through demonstrations and exhibitions of physical education activities, which have been found to draw approximately three adults for each pupil participant. Exhibitions can be demonstrations by a single school or competitions among schools in a city, county, or school disLrict.
