I agree that PE should be mandatory.
Personally I love sports even though I tend to watch it more than actually play it but yea not everyone is going to have the skills that these teacher/coach expected us to have. I hated playing Volleyball and it sucks that right away we were forced to be in teams and play against eachother. It's like they should give me some time to learn how to play or be comfortable with what I'm doing than just force me to play a sport I hate playing to get a grade.

But yea like you said they should teach us various methods of exercise cause play sports is not the only way to get fit.

I think you hit the nail right on the head with this one.

I'm not bad and I'm not great at sports. Of course it depends on the sport but you could probably expect an average performance from me.

All that being said, I still agree that a physical education should be not so old fashioned as just throwing us into some sport and telling us to play. With all the crap that we've learned about the human body, you'd think that they could fill out a class with a little more useful information than just playing flag football or volleyball.

Physical education should be about learning how to take care of ourselves actively. I'd rather do that than sit through like three health classes. Health is all well and good but it should compliment a good physical education.

XD And that's that.
