Answer:
ANNUAL SPORTS REPORT 2021 SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SPORTS SCIENCES AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION - PENIEL COLLEGE
All over the world, sports has and still serves as a unifying factor, a tool for character building, and a means of self-discovery.
It is with the above in mind that I assumed the role of the Sports Prefect. I knew that if I was to succeed, it was important for me to leave the school's Physical Education program in a better shape than I met it.
To do so, I had to re-envision what that unit is all about. It meant that I had to stand upon the shoulders of all my predecessors from 40 years ago and ask myself, WHY we are here.
As I did with the help of the Sports Coordinator, Mr. Bright Li, I developed the courage to request the help of all the students who served with me in the Physical Education Unit. Without them, none of the things we achieved would have been made possible.
During my tenure, we not only ensured that all the different sports which we have improved and received funding, but we also added new sub-units such as
- Skateboarding
- Sport Climbing
- Karate and
- Billards
For the first time in 12 years, we won the Regional chess championship and made it to the Nationals, coming back with the Bronze medal in third place.
Our football team had the rare opportunity to tour with the National football team. This exposure left a strong impact on the members of the team. Some of them now see their dream of joining an actual football team as being more real than ever. Some of the footballers elected to mentor anyone who was serious about taking football farther than college. Of course, there were certain terms and conditions attached.
Because of how we saw the school's Sports Program, and how we went about it, some of the students, have transferred the same dedication, discipline, and teamwork that they have learned on the field to their studies. Keeping track, we saw that the grades of all sports active students improved by 39% after we introduced the Play to Win philosophy. We made it clear through all our coaches and team leads that all the principles learned on the field were transferrable to academic work and that sports was not just an escape for those who felt they didn't have the brains or intelligence to excel academically.
As students progressed athletically, and in various other sports, their self-image increased. So did their academic performance.
I'd like to thank the all staff and students who helped to push the vision of the Sports and Physical Sciences unit further. Special appreciation goes to the teachers who supervised the following teams:
- Cricket
- Volleyball
- Table Tennis
- Chess
- Athletics
- Tug of War
They provided excellent coaching and for the first time in 9 years featured in interschool competitions, coming back home with at least a bronze medal. In all, we had 6 gold medals, 8 silver medals, and 2 bronze medals.
If we don't give up, IMPOSSIBILITY IS NOTHING.
Cheers
