Sauk Valley Community College should have a track and field team for several reasons. SVCC use to have a track and field team. Sadly, they dropped it in the nineteen seventies probably because of the expenses. Track and field is a very popular sport that many students might want to take part in middle and high school, or even at college level. Track isn’t a very expensive sport. It is one of the cheapest sports to participate in. Track and field is also very popular sport in colleges in the two hour radius from Sauk Valley Community College. Bringing track and field to Sauk will bring about 40-50 new students each year. Also, this will make Sauk become a better choice of colleges in the area, because of the distance. First off, Sauk should have a track and field team because it will attract more students. According to both the president of SVCC and the sports administrator, both feel that adding this sport to …show more content…
There are also multiple charges, which may include equipment, uniforms, and transportation. For uniforms, that would be needed is shirts, shorts, and shoes. Overall, the uniforms aren’t too expensive, but the college would reuse them every year. On the other hand, the spikes you need for long jump is pretty costly, but the students will need to have them checked by officials. Sauk would need to purchase several items for all of the events that would be available during the events. Some of the items include, shotput, pits, discus, pole vault mats, and hurdles, etc. The most expensive item Sauk would need is the pole vaulting pits. According to Aluminum Athletic Equipment’s website, pole vaulting mats can range from $14,750.00 to $19,950.00. On the other hand, discus and shot puts can range from $10 to $20 a piece. Sauk can have volunteers from groups, like what groups do for basketball games and run the popcorn/concussion
For anyone who is not in a sport-or is-and would like to join another, track is the perfect sport for all to get involved in. Extra-curricular activities are acceptive to anyone who is willing to join, although track in fact is the best. Here is why: there are several events for everybody to attempt. All of the training is spectacular exercise, which is great for one’s health. In addition, the competition is always fun to be a part of. After all, what could joining a club hurt?
I have the answers to question # 2 and 3 for Collin College. Please see below and let me know if you have any questions or need any additional supporting documentation or information.
It would help so many students out, if people would help us out cause were student athletes it would be
The university also participates in many sports competitively, including basketball, swimming, rugby, rowing, soccer, cycling and volleyball.
Track will increase speed, endurance, and agility. Speed, agility, and endurance are used in baseball, football, and basketball. All these sports are jointed together with track for cardio. I’m not for all the running and training that is included in becoming an outstanding athlete, but I pushed myself into going through the training.
And just saying guys, college loves when students get in all these activities, this means that kids really pride in something that they love so much. But, if you take this away from them, then they won’t get into the college that they want to. Kids need to do sports to be healthy, have fun, and follow their dreams. Don’t say I am wrong because I know the pros and cons of playing a sport. Yes, sports are easy and hard, you can get hurt while playing it, but if you love it and dedicate for yourself and others then you should do it. No mayor and school board should take this away from you and others. They want us to have a good education than to do something we love to do. They want us to worry more about school work then to worry about what we have to do outside of school. Kids need the sports to know that they have a talent in something and know that it's something that they love to do. Kids need education in sport right? Yes, yes they do. Kids should be able to go to a college for any activity that they are interested with and know that they love. In conclusion, no mayor or school board should take away a sport knowing that is what you want to do in life and
ACTIONS: Except track team sports are not using the stadium field. One conversation with Coach Perry centered around making it happen and 'its about time' in his words.
Athletics is another way students can get connected around campus. The Ryerson Athletics Club radiates a spirit of belonging, pride and excellence which enriches the overall experience of a student's post secondary career. Basketball, volleyball, curling, cheerleading, figure skating, hockey, cross country, and fencing are some of the many diverse sports offered to the students of Ryerson. By being involved in Ryerson Athletics, students can maximize their personal growth immensely. Not only do they get to maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle, but also learn essential lessons such as: leadership development, commitment
I think every single school should have a coed sports team in their sports program. If your school doesn't have a coed sports team; you should give a call to the school and the coach of that team. If your school does have a coed sport team support it. Tell all your friends to go to their games and buy stuff from them. Try to put your opinion online and give some details.
Soccer should be available at SCHS because it would add to our sports and schools around us have it. Soccer is a really fun sport to play because soccer is a team sport. There is a lot of people I know that would love for SCHS to have soccer as a sport. The sport it's not only for "Mexicans" as people say so. Here is the United States the sport is pretty popular. Too. Been places where they are about soccer, and love it.
Athletics have always been a big part of the college experience. College recruiters travel all over the country to get the best athletes for their schools. It is any athletes dream to play college sports. Often times students dedicate their lives putting in the hard work and training that is required to get to the college level. Their time and dedication is often paid off with the chance to play sports in college.
It has been statistically proven that out of all the Division 1 sports teams, only 45% of them are actually allowed to graduate. Colleges need to focus on the “athletic-students” now. They need to get the “athletic-students”, who are only in college for the sports, to become “student-athletes”, who are students that are good at sports but have school as the number one priority. Although, most people are only looking at the graduation rates, which are low and need improvement, but they don’t show the entire story. They only show how many people graduate, not all the people that got an education. This doesn’t mean that all the athletes got an education in college. Colleges need to change and enforce a few things to make sure that their athletes are understanding the soul purpose on college, an EDUCATION! They could bench freshman until they can prove that they are ready for the responsibility of going to college and playing sports. Colleges should even make the people that are failing classes, or skipping lessons and lectures without a good reason ride the bench for a game. That should teach them to take their college education more seriously. There are some colleges that are doing things different, and they are
In high school my coaches always preached, “Academics are a priority and athletics are a privilege.” I believe this statement is true from a high school standpoint, but from a college standpoint, that is absolutely wrong. The reason I say this is because here at Midland University, you acquire either an academic or athletic scholarship. If you only have an athletic scholarship, your main priority in college is your sport, right? This lead me to the question, “do I want to continue being a track athlete in two years?”
Southern University A&M College welcomed Dr. J.S. Clark as the new African American leader and president in 1914 after the big move. As Dr. Clark as president, he made numerous improvements on campus and off campus. He established a Junior College, teacher-training curriculum, Agricultural Extension Program, a summer normal school, six brick buildings for instructional activities, five brick dormitories, and eleven wooden structures for the faculties. Before his retirement came, he funded money from the government to build a library, a football stadium, an administration building, a gymnasium, and additional dormitories. During this time period, Felton G. Clark, J.S. Clark only son, was one of Southern’s most promising
I will discuss about track and field, its history, and how it can benefit you. Even if you're a slow jogger, you'll burn at least 10 calories per minute of running. That means you'll run off a block of chocolate in less than 23 minutes! Everyone can participate in track and field, you might think it's too much work or you don't fit in this sport, after reading one of its benefits you'll change your mind and might give it a try.
