My Project

My middle school students have requested a game that our school does not have the equipment for. I appreciate their input and I want to make their physical education time fun and enjoyable. I will use this equipment to add a racquet sport to our team sports curriculum.

I would love to surprise our student-athletes with badminton supplies, racquets and shuttlecocks!

This game will be extremely beneficial for students who prefer less strenuous, more friendly competitions. We will be able to play this game inside during the winter months and outside when the weather cooperates in the Fall and Spring. This equipment will enhance the variety of physical education choices for our middle school students.
