Clinton News-Record, 1984-08-29, Page 18Sports help break monotony Believe it or not, it's time for back to school thoughts. This means getting up ear- ly and sitting through classes while your night hours are filed with homework. But there is a way to make school life a little more bearable. Extra -curricular activities provide a break from the every day routine. They also open doors to new skills and friendships, especially for students who are starting at a new school. Extra -curricular sporting activities could include everything from intramural sports to school teams. For the public school students, taking part in sports during the regular school year helps prepare them for their bigtrack and field day. During this day the students pit themselves against the best runners, high jumpers and hurdlers from the surrounding schools. By pactising and keeping in shape, the students increase their .opportunity to make the school teams in high school. Central Huron Secondary School provides a great range of sporting events for both its male and female students. The Redmen represent Clinton in volleyball, basketball, soccer, badminton, track and field and foot- ball. The majority of these sports also have the benefit of being urged on by the cheerleaders. At the end of the year, the most valuable male and female are selected, paying tribute to two people who not only do well in sports, but show leadership and an ability to get along with their peers. Physical Education classes also help to break the routine of going from classroom to classroom the entire day. Doing a little ex- ercise sometimes improves your outlook on the days events as a short jog helps to clear your head. Like everything else; phys. ed. has its weaknesses as well as its strengths. There are days when you must jog outside in freez- ing weather with your shorts on, or play soc- cer in 80 degree weather and then head to. your next class. However, there is nothing quite like a jog in the cool air to get your senses working again. t It has been said over ancver again that a little . exercise never hurt anyone, and one gym class per day is just the thing to keep you feeling good and in shape.
