Oh yes you can! Meet the amazing Lindsay Hilton. She plays for Halifax Towers in Canada and she is the toughest rugby player in the world. Watch  this video.

 

Now have a chat with each other after the video. Here’s 4 questions:

 

1. How do you feel about Lindsay Hilton?

Is she crazy or brave?

Is she enthusiastic or scared about sport?

 

2. Would this video make you want to get out and play a sport?

If ‘Yes’, ask yourself why does it make you want to play sport?

If ‘No’, ask yourself why does it make you want to play sport?

There is no right or wrong answer here.

 

3. How would you persuade a friend to watch this video?

What would you say to them?

 

4. Imagine you are playing in a team – any team. One of your friends says ‘ I don’t want to practice today because it’s too cold’.

What would you say to them?

Perhaps this video might inspire you to encourage them to play?

 

Don’t forget to tell your friends about this video. Tell them to go to GreatSportsmanship.org and insert ‘Lindsay’ to find the video and the story. Or better still (parents), share it on social media below.
