I’m always behind the times when it comes to watching movies. This weekend I caught a 2003 documentary called “Year of the Bull.” It followed a blue-chip recruit in his final season as high school football player. Some of the footage was shocking, and this documentary could become a level-one coaching primer on. “how not to coach high school athletes.”.

It was a tall order for a kindergartner, especially since Nolan was still recovering from a liver transplant 10 months earlier at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford. Nolan represented organ donor recipients at the San Francisco Giants’ 23rd Annual Organ Donor Awareness Day on Sept. 14, also known as Donate Life Day.

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.

But there are also some younger guys in their 20’s who play with us. Of course, there is some friendly trash-talking about old men and their ability to play the game (usually coming from the old men themselves).

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.
