In addition to Theory students will learn proper technique for blocking, tackling, throwing, catching and kicking the football. Practice of both individual and team skills will be incorporated into lessons. Students will gather an understanding of the history and evolution of the Canadian game. An additional focus for the course will be off- season football specific training including weight training for strength and power, speed and agility work and body flexibility. Students will learn how to develop and maintain a healthy, vibrant off- season program that helps them achieve performance improvement on the field. Students will also learn about how football players learn about and take care of their bodies through preventative maintenance and therapy. Special attention will be paid to the dangers of performance enhancing drugs such as steroids and growth hormone. Training supplements and proper training nutrition will be investigated. This class will satisfy graduation portfolio requirements of 80 hours of physical activity. Rationale: This class is an alternative to the traditional PE 11 that will allow the students to acquire their 80 hours of physical activity in grades 10, 11 and 12 for their grad transition requirements while providing students with a detailed understanding of Canadian football, sport specific training and nutrition. It is anticipated that many of the students in the course will also be participating in the High school football league and the course will more deeply explore all aspects surrounding the game. The course also provides an opportunity for students who are not participating in games to get a good understanding of the entire game. A football specific course will draw in students who might not otherwise participate in traditional PE course. For example: students with high BMI who can learn that they are athletic and can be active in their lives.
