On February 5th,
Brandi Preul from the Iowa Youth Rugby Association was here to teach our
students about Rugby. According to
Brandi, non-contact rugby has demonstrated nearly twenty times the effectiveness
of other traditional PE sports - with students typically going from introduction
to full speed in around twenty minutes. Students playing non-contact rugby in
PE are in their target heart rate 92% of the time!

The Iowa Youth Rugby
Association, donated four rugby balls to our Phys Ed program and the
instructions to many lead up activities that are both fun and safe to play in
PE. Non-contact rugby can be played at
all age levels and both indoors (preferred) and out.
Thanks Brandi and the Iowa Youth Rugby Association, for a SUPER experience for our students!
