Question: Sports!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!? well... im 14 years old going into high school and i never been in sports b4 and my dad keeps pushing me to join in sports how can i get ready to join sports what should i do to get in shape? and tips plz...
Answer: You should totally do track. I had to go through the same thing, because my doctor said so and I don't know how to thank her. All sports make you try out and they break you heart if you don't make it. Track is different. You don't have to try out and you make so many friends. You get into shape and you never feel left out. Everybody on your team goes through the same experience, whether its being tired from practices or joy from winning, it's all fun. The first week might be tough and you might one to quit, but it all gets easier. After the first two weeks of practices, you'll want to go track more than ever. And it's not all running, there's jumping and throwing to. I would recommend throwing because it's easier, funner, and you feel like family with the other throwers. Well good luck choosing!

Question: How do sports like fencing or archery work in colleges? let's explain better.
Im going to graduate high school, would like to do either of these sports, if these sports are available at a college can I participate in them even if I have never practiced the sport. The colleges on which im planning to attend do not specify anything and apparently they are not intramural. My high school does not offer these sports and neither does my town.
Answer: While I do not have experience with college archery and/or fencing teams, I do have experience with archery and fencing done by college students.
If the college(s) you are looking at do(es) not offer archery and/or fencing, you should find out if there is an SCA (Society for Creative Anachronisms, Inc.) branch located at/affiliated with the college(s) you are interested in. The SCA, because its main focus is the study and re-creation/re-enactment of the Middle Ages, incorporates archery and fencing into its activities -- and most major colleges (and many community colleges) have an on-campus SCA presence. The good part is that you do not have to join the SCA to take part in the archery/fencing, unless you want to join.
I have been involved in archery for more than 30 years, spent ten of those years with SCA archery, and have tried SCA fencing. Don't let anyone fool you into thinking that fencing is easy or for "sissies", because it is neither -- and SCA fencing is only slightly more strenuous than Olympic fencing (the main difference is Olympic fencing is limited to back-and-forth; In SCA fencing, you get to move around and use some foot-work).
Visit

and find out if there is a group affiliated with/located at the college of your choice. Then send an e-mail, and ask questions about archery and fencing.
Question: How do sports create a strong physical body and improve academic performance? I have to do an outline and am having trouble finding answers to these questions...
How do sports create a strong and well-trained physical body?
How do sports improve academic performance?
How do sports improve cooperation and communication skills?
I need legit sources!!! I can't do this without sources of where i got the info. Thank you so much!
Answer: Team sports improve cooperation and communication skills in a number of ways. First, you have to learn to work together in order to achieve a common goal. You are all trying to win, hopefully, so this is your common goal. If everyone on the team doesn't cooperate, then no one will be in sync, your plan won't work, and you will lose the game. In relation to communication, everyone on the team has to cooperate and this takes verbal and nonverbal expression of common goals, or communicating verbally and non verbally. Everyone on the team has to be on the same page and this cannot be accomplished unless there is a great deal of communication between every player on the team. This is only a jumping off point, so I hope it's helpful in getting you started.

Question: What sports/physical activities are good for someone with Cystic Fibrosis? I want to get my daughter involved in some good sports/physical activities. She's only 3 years old. She has Cystic Fibrosis. We live in New York and walk a lot, she gets out of breath often when we go for walks and walk up hills. But the doctors say its good for her to have to work her lungs. What are the best sports and other physical activities I should get her involved in?
Answer: Regular exercise improves the health of people who have cystic fibrosis. Exercise helps loosen mucus, encourages coughing, improves oxygen flow, and makes you feel better. Upper body exercises, such as swimming or rowing, increase the strength and endurance of the muscles that are used for breathing.
After talking to your doctor about how much exercise is good for your child, encourage your child to participate in sports and recreational activities. Team sports are great ways for your child to stay fit and to interact with other children. Talk to the coach or supervisor about your child's abilities and the important role of physical activity in the treatment of cystic fibrosis.
Some people who have cystic fibrosis may not be strong enough to participate in certain activities. Your doctor can recommend the right amount and type of exercise for you. Or, you may work with a physical therapist to develop your own exercise routine.
Question: What sports does the average american play ? It's just that your sports all seem to be very elitist to play football you need to be at least over six ft tall as with basketball, here in england anyone can play almost any of our national sports even rugby (certain positions) do you play much soccer as you call it.
Answer: I suspect that if you went by the number of participants for all ages, it would probably be basketball. Softball (like baseball except with a larger ball and underhand pitching) would probably be second. Soccer is popular amongst kids, but is not (yet) played much by adults.
And you don't need to be six feet plus to play basketball -- that's only for professionals, and not even all of them (specifically the guards) are that tall. I played basketball in high school and college (house league) -- all 5'11'' of me. And I played forward.
Question: Are sports important on your high school resume when applying to go to a college? I am wondering because I am very athletic, however I am not sure if I want to participate in any sports.
I take on a lot of leadership skills, extracurricular activities, and I am practically valedictorian, but just how important are sports on your resume?
Answer: Colleges like it if you played sports in high school because it shows that you are a team player and that you have school spirit.
It's not necessarily better than other extracurriculars, but it does look good to colleges.

Question: How can high school sports be rewarding to students in the present and future ? Many sports injuries are minor, such as sprains. But doctors say they are seeing an increase in overuse injuries,stress fractures, tendanitis, bursitis and chronic pain syndromes.
But im looking at the positive side of students playing sports like the fact that they are more fit in High School and as they get older they are less likely to become obese, which is the number one problem in the U.S.
But what how else do you think High School sports can be rewarding besides keeping students fit ?
Answer: What is sport? It is a situation where Person A competes with Person B and the best person wins, while someone comes second. However eventually if the person who comes second raises their attitude, trains, then the chances are they will beat the same person next time around. Likewise Team A plays Team B and one teams wins, while the other team comes second. Likewise if the team who came second raises their standards, then they might be winners next time around.
In School sport is not about fitness, its about how to compete, how to be a winner and how to be a looser, if the person likes one to one situations, or if they are a Team player. All that life has to offer can be found in sport, from being the individual, the outsider, to being a team player, working in a team. To winning gracefully and loosing gracefully, to having the right attitude, personality, to accept defeat and strive for perfection.
Most employment situations will have the same attributes as Sport, and that is why sport is rewarding, even if you cannot hit a ball, let alone catch a ball.
