Floorball Club, member/co-leader                                          Mid May 2021 – 11th June 2021

Experience: Co-creating and joining our floorball club                                              LO3, LO4

A group of friends and me have not played floorball since PE classes back in IGCSE and Middle school, and we really missed it – thus, we had the inspiration/motivation to plan and head an activity called floorball club where anyone can come down and play floorball for 2 hours on Friday afterschool. This activity would allow students to have some fun, while exercising, and destress from the stress of the week.

LO3 [Demonstrate how to initiate and plan a CAS experience] –                                                      LO4 [Show commitment and perseverance in CAS experiences] – Me and 2 other friends started contacting and speaking to the activities heads, and figuring out whether this floorball club activity would be fathomable – finally, after a few weeks of logistics, and planning – we were able to book out a sports hall (school facility) and retrieve floorball side barriers, which would allow us to play competitive and fun games of floorball. This activity first ran at the start of April until the end of the school year in mid June. During this activity we also had to confirm the amount of people coming to the activity beforehand, plan groups of 5 and social distancing to adhere to Singapore Covid-19 regulations, and set up and clean up all the equipment before and after it started.

This type of planning and logistics is a skill I am trying to work on at the moment, and, although it is not easy, and it is dependant on others – it is an important skill to have for the future – whether that be organising a lesson, games, or other activities.
