PE Teachers Participate in Play and Stay Workshop

PE Teachers Participate in Play and Stay WorkshopAntigua St. John’s – On June 26, over 20 physical education teachers took part in a Play & Stay Workshop geared towards developing a vibrant schools’ tennis programme for the new academic year.

This was the second such workshop held this year as the Antigua & Barbuda Tennis Association (ABTA) continues its efforts to promote tennis in the schools through its School Tennis Initiative (STI) programme, a release from ABTA stated.

The STI programme, initiated by the International Tennis Federation (ITF), is aimed at identifying talented youngsters for follow-up programmes, and developing the teachers’ education in tennis in order to encourage more varied and fun physical education lessons, as well as contributing to the educational development of children at school by building motor skills and self-confidence.



The physical education teachers, who also worked on the physical parts of the game, were equipped with the skills to aid them in moving forward with their PE programmes come September, 2012.

Facilitators of the Play & Stay Workshop were Coach Cordell Williams and Tennis Co-ordinator in the Ministry of Sports, Richard Elien.

Notes From A Native Son Of The Rock. Congrats and Success with your Physical Education Training for our Youth in the Schools' Tennis Programme for next year.

Two thoughts are weighing down heavily on me. One articulated by the Creative and Visionary Change Management Advisor and Consultant of Sustainable Development, Dr. Isaac Newton: Leaders must act and "convey contagious passion" to erase Doom and "Solve Problems" with "Innovative Good and the Right People",..., "where all praise and honour will be measured by how lives are transformed on the personal and communal levels."

The other playfully chants: Quote:
A man/woman walks down the street S/he says why am I soft in the middle now ... The rest of my life is so hard I need a photo-opportunity I want a shot of Redemption Don't want to end up a Cartoon In a Cartoon Graveyard - Paul Simon.
Dedicated to The Haitian Hero.
Heaven Help The Nation Of Antigua & Barbuda including Redonda.
