Rugby Rookie Initiation Rookie Initiation Ideas?

The fitness test

An article in La Presse , highlights something that emerges from my reading here , and there is still . Even Francis speaks here.

This is the report of a study (which I can not find the source) from the University of British Columbia (UBC ) on the declining health of young people. The comparison is made with today's youth and others from 25 years ago. In general, young people who now rank 50th in the 86th were rank in 1981.

A fact that comes out of the study is that young people walk much less than before. A phenomenon that can be observed at the exit of some schools. While some school boards have increased the minimum distance for school transport, one option might be to let children walk to school, a certain proportion of parents decided to replace the school bus, thus reducing the number steps that young people in one day.

can worry about the health of young people, but it should also be noted that this is a societal problem. Even some fire departments have difficulty in recruiting candidates because they fail the physical tests .
