This has been a good, busy, and at times challenging year for Teen Health Mississippi (THMS). Mississippi has had a year with tough moments, including the state legislature passing a law to take out the expiration date on the current sex ed law to the tornadoes in Rolling Fork and Silver City that affected communities we serve in the Delta. Even so, we pushed forward in our work to connect more youth and their communities to a variety of supports, ranging from mental and sexual health support to

Isaac Diaz, age 18, was tired of epilepsy and cerebral palsy ruling his life. The thoughtful, gentle, yet self-determined teen simply wanted to do what teens do—be independent, get a job, play sports, and, most important, learn how to drive. “I just wanted to do things without having to worry that a seizure was going to ruin it,” says Isaac. When his seizures started coming more frequently out of nowhere at age 15—first every six weeks, then four weeks, then weekly—he took the initiative to rese

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

Why comparing eras in Sport will always end the same way Since the beginning of more or less everything, humans have been obsessed with comparing things. Films are always stacked up against greats of their genre and music is often held to the standard of one’s classic favourite - not as good as the Stones or Marvin Gaye? Not interested. Sport is no different but recently this has seen a reversal of fortunes for our modern stars’ plucky forebears.

I’m an old guy…at least that’s what my kids say…so it’s difficult to think back all the way to the late 1970s and early 1980s when I was enrolled in P.E. class. Luckily, I have children who can recall days in their elementary or middle school gym filled with fun games or challenges. There were the usual activities like kickball or dodgeball, even some made-up games courtesy of the P.E. teachers.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

Preparing for each game is perhaps one of the most important considerations when coaches are planning their weekly training schedule, as they aim to arrive at game day with players as fresh as possible. There are many different models and variations on how to structure the game week, I’ve included some examples below that were used during my own time working with teams, but the same theme runs through all of them and that is a taper of training loads into the game day.
