“The world would have us believe that winning or success is measured by points on a scoreboard or by dollar signs. The Christian realises that winning or success is determined by whether or not a goal has been achieved, and that goal is to bring glory to God.” Thomas M. Boqdon
Overview
Students investigate a number of different strategies using a ‘game sense’ approach, where the focus is not only on technical proficiency, but a greater emphasis is placed on the development of tactics and decision-making. Students will explore a range of activities that will enhance the development of previously learnt skills, improve physical fitness and promote a healthy lifestyle. Through involvement in the small-sided games, students develop a Christian perspective towards competition with a view to promoting sportsmanship and cooperation

“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore, I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.” 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
