USF Sports Camp in Fukushima Summer 2017
The purpose of the accommodation-type sports camp is to promote communication and international exchange through sports with participating children and volunteer staff. By experiencing multiple sports, they will be exposed to the diversity of sports and promote their interest in and understanding of sports culture.
At the Fukushima Prefecture event, they experienced four sports: rugby, basketball, badminton, and handball. We invited a former Japanese national team player as a lecturer to show us a masterpiece demonstration up close, and we all enjoyed sports while learning the basic movements and rules. In addition, we promoted communication through English, such as English games, thinking about cheering phrases, and planning cheerleading.
