I was recently informed that Maranatha Christian Academy was looking into starting a debate team. The Odette School of Business runs a semi-annual High School debate called the Richard Peddie Debate Tournament. If you have any questions about debate in general or the tournament I would be happy to help you out. We also have two tournament directors that would be willing to run a tutorial with your debate team.
It’s shaping up to be a trying year for the NCAA as two former athletes have come forward in the past week and filed a class action lawsuit against them for “academic fraud in its members schools’ athletic programs.” While some think this couldn’t get worse, from the numerous unacknowledged complaints from over the last century, a large number of the student athletes on the receiving end of less than stellar educations were African-American student athletes—especially in revenue-producing sports like basketball and football.
The Rideau Canal is the oldest continuously operating canal in North America; operated today much as they were in 1832-1834 when they first opened. Maintained by Parks Canada and their lock staff. Becoming employed on the Rideau Canal is a fantastic opportunity whether you are a lockmaster, canalman, or a student; for each of these positions you have to complete a test varying in difficulty the higher the positon is.
6th graders should be allowed to participate in school sports just as 7th and 8th graders. Reasons we should participate in school sports are, kids can get even more fit and strong than just being in gym, another one is people can challenge each other in competitions, my final one is that children can be incredibly better along with teamwork and leadership. This is why I think we should play in sports in 6th grade.
Some of these actions depend on the children and who they are against or how they are ranked in the social status, and some just lack of confidence. Others are not too affected because of their social status and how much confidence they have. “Children might get physically or emotionally scarred.” (Dodgeball debate Pt. 1) Some of the weaker kids can get seriously injured when against the bigger tougher kids. In acquaintance with that, kids are human targets. They are being picked on by the stronger ones to just get them over with. Furthermore, if a kid hits them right in the noggin, they can get knocked out and that could seriously affect their brain depending on how hard they got hit. “Some parents expect their kids to be safe in school.”

For the past 50 years in America, schools have made it a tradition to play sports in schools. But schools have been crushing the future for their students because they allow sports in schools. While students and parents feel that sports in schools are appropriate and valuable, that is just simply not the case and schools have just gone too far. Schools should eliminate sports programs because sports programs put a financial burden on schools, getting rid of sports will increase in academics and students can get injured when playing sports.
The football program is to dangerous and should be eliminated because it is way to dangerous to keep. 100,000 concussions occur every year from football that's more than how many shark attacks occur each year, most of the concussions result in death so basically 100,000 teen's/kid's die just from playing football. Over 500,000 injuries occur annually to american youth from playing football that's five thousand only from just playing football now sport injury all together is 30 million. 80% of the knee injuries suffered from playing football require surgery and the surgery could cause further complications with the athletes knee could even cause him/her to never play a sport again, something could go wrong in the knee surgery and affect the
In today’s world, sport debates are very popular. Often seen on television through shows such as ESPN, First Take, and Sports Nation. These debates can be very entertaining to the viewers as two people ferociously argue about sport topics. An interesting discussion, however, is about Kobe and Steph. They may have similar traits in common, but they’re not as similar as analysts think. Kobe Bryant and Stephen Curry are both tremendous basketball players in their own right, nevertheless Kobe and Steph have a nearly opposite play style.
In my first tournament, out of 100 debaters, I placed 4th. With two weeks of preparation, I managed to powerfully and persuasively relay my viewpoints while eclipsing three-fourths of my competition. I realized that not only did I enjoy debating, but I found my niche.
One of the unique activities in high school around the United States is debate. This extra-curricular activity is the most influential activity one can participate in. Specifically, Lincoln-Douglass and Policy Debate because the amount of research and critical knowledge that is gained is amazing. Debate is an activity focused on preparing students to stand up for what they believe in. The activity requires students to analyze a topic known as a resolution, and then defending, supporting and critiquing that topic.
Almost all student athletes get butterflies before that Friday night football game, before the fans get to watch them compete, or even the to get the ability to practice. Many argue that high school sports are a distraction in the classroom or even cause career ending injuries. There are many different scenarios that prove that high school sports do the exact opposite of those. When it comes to high school sports, it keeps students fit, boosts a student’s academic performance, and enhances a student’s self-esteem. High school sports are very beneficial and for anyone who is looking to take on a new challenge to take on.
Holidays have always been known to affect our consumer culture for many years, but how it all began eludes many people and very few studies have been completed on it. Even though some say that the subject is too broad to precisely identify how holidays, especially Christmas, directly affect our market, I have found that people’s values, expectations and rituals related to holidays can cause an excessive amount of spending among our society. Most people are unaware that over the centuries holidays have become such a profitable time of year for industries that they now starting to promote gift ideas on an average of a month and a half ahead of actual holiday dates to meet consumer demands.
This past Friday the Odette School of Business, at the University of Windsor, held the Richard Peddie High School Debate Tournament. The Richard Peddie High School Debate Tournament is a semi-annual invitational debate tournament for Windsor area students ranging from grades 9-12. 130 students were able to attend this semester coming from 10 schools from around the area. Students use logic and their argumentative skills to outweigh their opponent’s arguments. This year was different with the addition of motions of the last two rounds. Ethan Wuerch and Callista Gagnon took home best Junior Male and Junior Female awards respectively. As well as Marcus Deans and Mirna Eshaya were awarded Best Varsity Male and Varsity Female respectively. Assumption
You are worried about your child going to get injured in his first game of football. Little did you know, there's nothing you should be really worried about. In fact, sports to young children or teens might seem dangerous. But on the other hand, it is just a fun sport for young children and teens to play. Sports also makes kids and teens active in a fun way and sports makes kid entertain themselves. Although sports seems dangerous, teens and young children should be allowed to play sports because sports makes them healthy, higher scores in school, and makes kids less depressed (sad).
Oh great. Another bad day at school. Good thing we have basketball practice, today, to ease my mind. This is how some people think about sports. However, some do not think the same. Therefore, middle schools are deciding on whether to keep sports the same way they have been or scale back some on sports. Principals and superintendents should not scale students back on sports because it helps them prosper in many ways.
