We all know that sport is a fantastic tool for teaching young children many of life's great lessons. Sportsmanship, etiquette, following rules and responsibility are all aspects of sport that we promote and nurture in students. This week however was a reminder that sometimes in sport, revered sports people are sometimes not the best at teaching these lessons.

The behavior of one particular Australian tennis player showed us all of the bad things that can be conjured up in sport. Unsportsmanlike conduct, arguing, tantrums & general bad behavior were all on show at Wimbledon and set a very bad example for the young and impressionable junior players & kids of this country.

So whilst showing personally on the court, field or arena is encouraged we think that these athletes need to take the responsibility of 'role model' with a greater degree of seriousness. Do we really want the next generation to think this behavior is the norm?

We think that sports stars, coaches and parents need to teach children the good aspects of sportsmanship and help to educate children that the best character to come out in competition should be those aspects that we can all be proud of.

Next week the team will be heading to Mornington & Glen Waverley in Melboure Victoria to deliver a fun and exciting Basketball clinic as part of our School Holiday Tour!

The students will get the chance to shoot some hoops and play modified games & activities.

Basketball is such a great sport for both boys and girls to get involved with as it is non contact, easy to get into (just need a basketball!) & can be played at school, local rec centres and local parks.

Below are some videos to get you excited for the program kicking off next week!

Today the team visited two schools along the Mornington Peninsula to run our Australian Rules Football clinics. Over the day we saw aroun 60 children who got the chance to learn the various skills of the great sport including kicking, handpassing, marking, bouncing & goal kicking!

The students worked through the skills in partners and also did running work within a group.

At the end of each session a longest kick competition took place to give the students a chance to test their newly learnt skills.

What was great was seeing so many students who had never participated in Australian Rules Footy before getting involved, learning the skills and enjoying it! Thank you to all the students who participated and we hope that you will now continue to play this great sport into the future.
