Participants will practice dribbling, passing/receiving, and finishing/shooting drills. There will also be plenty of fun exercises to enhance motor coordination. Proper footwork, positional play, crosses, distribution and a number of other techniques will be covered. Games will be played at each class.
SEPTEMBER
SOCCER
Students will participate in fun contests such as steal the flag, punt, pass and kick. Introduction to football fundamentals along with position specific responsibilities will be emphasized. PE football is co-ed and is a non-contact class, so no football equipment is needed. Flag football games will be played daily to reinforce lessons taught. The lesson plan is adjusted for age-appropriate groups!
OCTOBER
FLAG FOOTBALL
This PE class includes fundamental instruction such as position play, drills, and techniques. Special emphasis will be placed on bunting, hitting, base running, and fielding. Helmets are provided, but your child may bring their own. Games will be played at each session.
NOVEMBER
SOFTBALL
Kickball is a very simple sport and is popular with our students. A large rubber ball is used for making contact with the runner either by tagging or throwing below the waist. The two teams will run the bases at the beginning of the class to choose which team will kick first.
DECEMBER
KICKBALL
Participants will practice dribbling, passing, receiving, finishing and shooting drills. There will also be plenty of fun exercises to enhance motor coordination. Proper footwork, positional play, crosses, distribution and a number of other techniques will be covered. Games will be played at each class.
JANUARY
BASKETBALL
Nerf Dodgeball is one of our most popular classes. This is a great cardio sport because of the jumping and dodging. The game also improves hand and eye coordination and quickness.
The balls used in this sport are made of a spongy and light plastic material and pose no problem when coming into contact with the students. These lighter weight balls move slower through the air and are easier to dodge.
FEBRUARY
NERF DODGEBALL
This international sport has been modified for the EMH Sports program. The game is played with two teams. The team with the ball passes to other team members until one is able to throw it into the goal of the other team. There will be different size balls for age appropriate groups and skills will focus on throwing, catching and making goals. The rules and regulations will be discussed before each class session.
MARCH
HANDBALL
In the track class participants will learn proper form, conditioning drills/games and running techniques. At each class session, 30 minutes will be spent on track work and 30 minutes on field events. Participants will not run over 100 meters and will work on their individual speed and endurance. Baton handoff and relay racing will be introduced. Field events will include the shot put and standing long jump. A PE track/meet will be held on the last class for students to participate in.
APRIL
TRACK AND FIELD
Participants will practice dribbling, passing/receiving, and finishing/shooting drills. There will also be plenty of fun exercises to enhance motor coordination. Proper footwork, positional play, crosses, distribution and a number of other techniques will be covered. Games will be played at each class.

bright spot during difficult times.”

“Coach Lisa is absolutely incredible. She has made our first experience
so fun. Coach Lisa is 100% the reason I am adding my youngest

am extremely impressed with how she handles all the different types
and ages of children in our group and we couldn't be happier!”

dreading taking this class to loving it.”

“We have enjoyed our PE classes with EMH over the years and
especially working with Coach Jason. He does such a good job
connecting with all the kids - from the little ones to the high schoolers.
I have four boys who have gone though EMH classes, and I really
appreciate the connection Coach Jason seeks to make with all the
students - encouraging them in their athletic skills, making personal
connections with them (even giving some of them nicknames), as well
as fostering good sportsmanship. I highly recommend EMH!”

His favorite sports are Baseball, Football and Basketball. His favorite sports team are the Oakland Raiders, San Francisco Giants and the Golden State Warriors.

Coach Jason says “I am lucky to have some of the same students over the course of 10 years. It’s rewarding to watch them grow and help the newer students in class feel comfortable. I love watching students who might be shy or timid breakout out of their shell as time goes on. I enjoy how even if you are having a bad day, which we all do, once I get to class that all goes away for that hour and we have fun in class. I love watching students become leaders and finding their voice through sports. Sports are supposed to challenge you. It’s not supposed to easy, but at the same time, it’s about building bonds and having fun. I appreciate seeing students do their best and find success while potentially make life long friends.
