February 3, 1993 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Congratulations Council! by Bob Watson Our congratulations go to the City of Toronto Council for allowing its fire department to hire new employees on the basis of ability and potential skill for the job. The NDP government at Queen's Park has passed this ridiculous hiring system where "minorities and women" have a priority over "white males". This is probably the worst racial and gender bias that Ontario has endured - it's called '-Employment Equity". In our opinion you cannot hire employees by the colour of their skin or whether they are male or female. Corpora- tions, including government ones, must hire on ability and discrimination against anyone on the basis of skin colou ror gender is absolutely against all of our democracy. 30 Hour Famine Dear Editor. Last Februan. i helped co-ordinate the 30 Hour Famine at my high school. Through this event, our school raised over 55.000 for World Vision Canada to help alleviate world hunger. We joined schools. churches and individuals across the country in going without food for 30 hours to raise $2 million. Students who raised over $250 through the famine were eligible for an overseas trip. To enter, we wrote a 500 word essay on "How I can help put an end to world hunger' Then we were interviewed by a World Vision representative, w•ho made the final selection. Four girls from across Canada were the proud winners of a trip to Thailand in August. and i was hwky enough to be one of them' The two weeks i spent in Thailand were the most memorable weeks in my life. I used to think that the lines abut hungry children were just sob stories. but now i know how real those hungr% children are. I saw real poverty there for the first time. But in the midst of the darkness. there was light. World Vision is doing tremendous work with the Thai people. We saw many projects wtrere World %isron has set up self- sustaining communities. The Thai people are in charge of working the facilities and maintaining them. Thee cycle of poverty is broken by the process of development that takes place in these projects. It -;%t- very erxouraging to ace the mcxiey we raised being put to work %here it is so desperately needed. I want to encourage all students to be a part of the 30 Hour Famine. That experience alone was an eve -opener for me as to how it feels to go without food for even a short period of time. You can be assured that the money raised will make a significant difference in the lives of so many who need it. Sincereh Christy Nienu 30 hour Famine Study Tour Winner Ready To Stifle Dear Sir madam, The Ottawa political establishment is getting ready to use a secretly drafted law to stifle citizens' freedom of speech and association during federal elections. It's true' A committee of Conservative, Liberal and New Democrat :MPs recently proposed a law which threatens citizens with Lip to five years' imprisonment for spending more than $1,000 individually or as a group. to support or oppose political parties or candidates during federal elections. It's shocking but true. Canadians could be imprisoned for exercising their freedoms during elections, the most critical period in our democratic process. Worse. this gag law was drafted by the committee's MPs in secret and they kept no minutes. What are they trying to hide'. Canadians concerned about democracy and this gag law should demand that their INIPs vote against this anti - freedom law if it is presented in the House of Commons for a vote.

Ontario Minister of Tourism and Recreation Peter North and members of the Ontario Snowmobile Safety Committee have invited municipalities. snowmobile dubs and the general public to get involved during the second year of the m princial "Ride Safe, Ride Sober" campaign, launched in October in Sudbury. Between 19th O and 1990-91, 113 people were killed and 1.316 were injured in snowTnobile mishaps across Ontario- L;;rn recreational activities. snowmobile accidents rank second only to boating. The campaign's budget will be expanded from $50,000 to $1250X) in 1992-9n The snowmobile Safety Committee is contu=ng its ongoing public education program about trail safety. Sponsors for this year's campaign include the %hmstry of Tourism and Recreation, the Ministry of Transportation, the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Cubs, the Addiction Research Foundation and three snowmobile manufacturers: Yamaha Motor Canada Ltd., Arctic Cat and Bombardier Inc. This year's campaign will reinforce the key themes in- troduced last winter: "Ride Safe. Ride Sober" and "Booze and Snow Don't Go". New components will be added this year explaining how to nde safely on ice and at night as well as the legal rules of the trail. The committee has announced a province -wide Snowmobile Safety Contest, which features a 1993 Yamaha Phazer Deluxe Sno-A- obile as the grand prize. Par- ticipants will be asked to answer questions relating to snowmobile safety. Entre• forms are now available through Yamaha dealerships, local snow•nobile clubb and other selected locations in your community. The winning entry will be drawn during National Snowmobile Safety Week Feb. 11, 1993 at :Maple Leaf Gardens between periods of the Toronto Maple Leafs -Vancouver Canucks NHL game. Shift In Home Buying Patterns If 1992 was the year of affordable housing, '93 should be the year bargain hunters across Canada find exceptional values in the executive and upper -end horse market. Accor- ding to a recent survey of home prices across Canada by Canada Trust Realty home buyers are realizing that ex- ecutive and upper -end homes represent good value for the dollar because the prices in this segment of the market re- main low. Government initiatives such as the 5% down and RSP Home Buyers programs combined with record low interest should be prepared to lose them. Yours truly. David Somerville, President. Queen's Park Report Elinor Caplan M.P.P. Oriole We have begun a new year. but the number one concern of people across the province is the same as it was last year: jobs. People who are not worlung want a job. while people who are woriuing are more concerned than ever about holding onto their job. 1992 was a bad year for Ontario, but there are some signs of hope for 1993. Ontario needs to build on these signs. However, as much as we would like to see things get better, we still face a serious reality. Last year. Ontario suffered record unernployment and plant closings. The average number of unemployed people in Ontario in 1992 was a record 572,000, a sharp increase from the previous record o(506.000 in 1991. That bad news is compounded by the fact that while unemployment is dropp- ing elsewhere in Canada, it cominles to increase in On- tario. There was a record 123 major plant closures in On- tario in 1992, up from IIS in 1991. These plants provided work for almost 15,000 workers: now those jobs are gorse for good. In of des to reverse these trends, Ontario needs a provin- cial government that can create an environment that will help people to capitalize an signs of recovery. Frankly. the current government pays lip service to job creation. They have no strategy to work with the private sector, the only place where new jobs will actually be created. This limits the government's ability to create a climate for economic renewal. Ontario needs a provincial government that is committed to principles that will create a climate for economic renewal: the principle that jobs are created only through growth in the private sector: the principle that trust and in- tegrity in government is a cornerstone of public con- fidence: the principle that the problems in Ontario's com- munities can only be solved by the initiative and creativity of the people who live and work in those communities, not by people sitting around a table at Queen's Park. After a tough year in 1992, Ontario can bounce back. But the strengths of the people in our• province can only be harnessed if we have a government that's prepared to create the proper climate. rates encouraged first time buyers to enter the market in '92 but demand from this segment is starting to stabilize. We will see a lot of activity in 19913 from move -up buyers who are using equity and low interest rates to improve their housing situation. "Demand generated by first time buyers is still a factor," observed Jim Moore, President, Canada Trust Realty inc. "The extension of the government's RSP Home Buyers Plan will offer some continued appeal to first time buyers SO they will still influence on the market. However, we're now seeing a greater number of buyers trading up." �----------M.....................

"I would like to express my sincere welcome and ;support to the fifteen women on the council, par- ticularly the new president, Jacqueline Pelletier.

The council advises the government on matters pertaining to the achieve- ment of economic, social and legal equality for worsen. Council members also undertake regional community outreach and consultation to gather the views of women on issues of concern in their region and exchange information about government ac- tivities among women. Marian Boyd said "the public nomination process was a key part of the coun- cil's new mandate to en- sure regional representa- tion, including outreach and activities, which means more women par- ticipate and more get heard." She also added that "communication and action always improve when women art familiar with and have confidence in those who represent them, and this is ensured with this new council.** Buy A Crocus For CNIB The Canadian National Institute for the Blind will celebrate an early sprung at its fourth annual Crocus Sale, Feb. 9th to 14th.

Please take time to clear your sidewalks as soon as possible after a snowfall. Be sure to shovel snow onto your lawn or boulevard not into the roadway where it creates a hazard for motorists. The City requests your co-operation by not leaving your car on the road during the 24.30 hour period following a snowfall. That makes plowing the road faster and saves tax dollars, too. During this time all our equipment is on the roads. In order to keep as many people moving as possible, we start with the main streets and work down to the cul-de-sacs. When this is finished, we start to plough sidewalks on main streets and for seniors and the disabled on our list. Your assistance this winter is appreciated. However. sidewalk clearing is so important that we have passed By-law No. 17117 requiring that owners or occupants clear the public sidewalk of ice and snow within 24 hours. If this obligation is neglected. the City may. after sufficient notice, clear the sidewalk and charge the owner for the service. The City of Scarborough has programs to help senior and disabled residents. For information, call our "SNOW HOTLINE" - 396.7372. Page 6 THE NEWS POST Wed. February 3, 1993 Bill Watt's Worlds AT THE OPERA: The Canadian Opera Company's pairing of Bluebeard's Castle and Er- wartung at The O'Keefe is. uh. . interesting. Au- diences will either like or dislike it. Even those in the latter group, however, will be pleased to have had the experience though pro- bably unwilling to repeat it. Bluebeard's Castle is ac- tually quite good thanks to the libretto of Bela BaMzs which transforms the hoary old tale of a wife murderer into a psychological exploration of blood and death as a necessary for life. It's com- pelling enough to make one grudgingly tolerant of Bar- tok's score. The design of Michael Levine approaches brilliance. albeit a macabre one and the lighting design of Robert Thomson is indeed brilliant figuratively and sometimes. literally. One supposed the direction of Robert Lepage is good though it's difficult to discern its roots. if any. through the foliage of design and lighting. The blood soaked walls must please the ghosts of Edgar Allan Poe and Howard Phillips Lovecraft. Throw- in Aubrey Beardsley as wen. Bluebeard's Castle is a two character opera and the roles are sung by a baritone and a mezzo- soprano. The latter choice of voice stwuldn*t be sur- prising. Bluebeard's newest latest bride is a strong character and the voice is all of a piece with it. Jane Gilbert mo. not the new Global T V new.. an- chor, sings the role of Judith and does well. If that seems niggardly. it's not intentional. It's simply that the music of Bartok. even at its arguable best, is difficult to deliver and even more difficult for the auditor to appreciate. Reliable Victor Braun delivers strongly as the enigmatic Barbe Blue (doesn't anyone care to know whence the name`' ( with a voice of authority and a demeanour of questing and questioning. Richard Bradshaw con- ducts like ... well. Richard Bradshaw. ( Are we the on- lv one who thinks his podium is unnecessarily high?) Bela Bartok's Bluebeard's Castle (A kekszalcallu Verceg Vara) is an uneasy amalgam cor- ruption of Beauty and the Beast. Cass Tamberlane and Cricket on the Hearth. redeemed by the C.O.C.'s innovative production which makes it, if not memorable. most certainly recollectable. Regrettably, one of the strengths of Bluebeard is the downfall of S( hoenberg's Erwartung which doesn't have much going for it in any case. Arnold Shoenberg is to music as Dali and Mcasso to illustrative art. All were well grounded in fun- damentals: each chose to embrace sensationalism for mammon. the crucifix- im of God given talent upon a cross of monetarv- and monxmtarv-reward. His music -"music' -has long since ceased to be novel and is now only curious, certainly not en- joyable. The sacrifice of Schoenberg is palpably manifest in Erwartung ( Anticipation ) . The so called monodrama for sograrin and orchestra has a libretto by Marie Pappenheim which one wonders is autoaiographical. It tells Around and About Your Dining &Entertainment Guide the story of a young woman in analysis recalling, via incipient primal scream. the death of her unfaithful lover (an oxymoron but never mind(. Perhaps - perhaps -the tortured or- chestral constructions of Schoenberg are intended to match the equally tortured recollections of the heroine manque. And, it might have worked except for the excesses of director Robert Lepage. One can accept only just so many bodies squirming out of a Laugh In wall: just so many fast blackouts: Just so many other ex- amples of directorial ex- cess before what is pro- bably intended as a cor- nucopia of offertory madness becomes an ex- crescence on the psyche. (Just why does the Psychiatrist slither around like the caterpillar in the ballet Alice'. ) Poor design and ex- cessive direction of a weak story set to sophomoric sounding music. Is there anything of merit in Er - Well. in this production. there's the performance of Rebecca Blankenship as the tortured woman. Her voice is more than equal to the ridiculous compositions of Schoenberg but. in the vernacular, so what' Her triumph is that of survival and the lady deserves ap- plause for it. Perhaps an audience deserves applause as well for enduring one in- teresting and one "so what'. " offering. Petitio primcipiii .

Scheduled performers are far too numerous to be listed here but, as usual. one will be missing. Yes. once again, we've not been invited to tap dance. Maybe next year.

Listen. we're not making this up' The contest is now in pro- gress and will run through Feb. 21st. The deadline for entries is available from Global. In order to play. viewers must watch Global's Northern Ex- poswe episodes of tonight. Feb. lith and 15th. In each. a secret word will be revealed. Contestants sub- mitting their moose calls must include the special word f rom arty of the three episodes. Contestants must be 19 years of age or more and be resident in Ontario. Two trips for two to Universal Studios in Florida will be awarded to the winning moose callers. All very nice. of course, but frankly. we'd rather be tap dancing on national television. Oh well.

ALBERTA, 191h - Ahrch Canadian magistrate was not considered a -'persan ` It sou knew that Lin11v FerLu- son Murphy. the first worr.an magistrate in the hrstory of the British Enipm:, had her legal sta- tus as a '.person" challenged on her first day in court, sou may also kni,w that !Murphy spear- headed a 1 + scar eflor1 to chart -_,e that stupefy mg state of affairs. Emily %lurphy was horn in C4xFks1own. Ontario in lhhh. She was the daughter of well-to-do parents and enjoyed an excellent education. At 19, she married an An2lican minister 12 years her senior. They scrsed in parishes throughout Ontario, and spent several years in England. During that time Murphy raised a tamily of young daughters. She became a journalist and later an author. writing udder the pen name "Janev Canuck." In 1904. the Murphys moved Nest, settling first in the Swan Ri,.er arca of Manitoba and mov- ing on to Edmonton in 19117. In Alberta. Murphy lobbied fiercely for the cause of women's rights and she was instrumental in framing the Dower Act of 191 1 which provided property rights for married women. She became a familiar face a legislative sessions and in the law courts, where she listened and learned. In 1916, she argued that the Cin of Edn-k)nto n was in need of a court in which utfcnders could he tried hs women in the presence of wonxn. The .attorney -General agreed with her, and promptly appointed !Murphy as the first woman Police .Magistrate in the Empire. .Murphy found her introduction to the court as pleasant an expe- rience as running a rapids." F n F i H P R 0 1 Indeed, on Judge Murphy's first day Edmon- ton's leading criminal lawyer. Eardley Jackson, turned on her as she sentenced his bootlegger Tient. "You're not even a person;' he shouted. "You have no right to be holding court!- Jackson persisted. quoting a statute of British Com- mon Law which stated: "Women are persons in matters of pains and penalties. but are not persons in matters of rights and privi- leges." Since the position of Mag- istrate was one of "privilege." Jackson concluded that Murphy was sitting "illegally" and no decision of her court could be binding. In 1917, the Supreme Court of Alberta ruled that as far as it was concerned women were "per- sons." The matter did not end there for Murphy, who discovered that according to the British North America Act women were not considered "persons" and as such could not he appointed to the Senate. ERITAGE On a national F < t scale. women's groups began years of urging the federal government to appoint a woman to the Senate to no avail. "Whenever I don't know whether to fight or snot. I always tight," Murphy once said. By 1927, Emily Murphy's fighting blood was up. She dis- covered that under the BNA Act any group of five citizens could petition the Supreme Court of Canada to rule on a constitutional point, and she determined to have an answer to the "person" issue. Four prominent Alberta women joined Murphy in the petition, which became known as the "Persons Case." When the Supreme Court of Watch for the "Murphy" Heritage Minute on your local television Station. For More information about the Hrritage Project call 1-IgN1-567-IM7 Canada ruled that since women held rx► public office of any kind in 12167, the Fathers of Confedera- tion could have had nu intention of including women among the "persons" qualified to he sum- nioned to the Senate. Murphy and her fellow petitioners decided to take their case to the Privy Council in Lordo ri. Five judges joined a battery of bewigged lawyers from Canada and England in four days of debate over the interpretation of a seven -letter noun. On October 19, 1929, the decision of the Supreme Court was reversed when the Judicial Council ruled that "the word per- sons includes members of the female sex." In his judgment, Lord Sankey noted that: "The exclusion of women from all public office-, is a relic of more barbarous times than ours." Thus. Canadian women were entitled for the first time to sit in the Senate. While many of her support- ers believed Murphy would be the ideal choice to be the first woman appointed, in 1930 Prime Minister Mackenzie King selected a well-known Liberal party worker, Cairine Wilson of Montreal. Undaunted, Murphy urged women "to rejoice" at the ultimate consequence of their hard-won personhood.

February 3, 1993 THE POST Page 7 Infection can be a matter of life and death Neutropenia is a potentially life-threatening condition re- sulting from a dangerously low level of white blood cells called neutrophils, which comprise about 71) per cent of white blood cells that fight infection. Neutropenia occurs most frequently in cancer patients un- dergoing chemotherapy. Chemotherapy attacks both healthy and cancerous cells, in- cluding neutrophils, the impor- tant white blood cells that are the body's primary defense against infection. "Many patients undergoing chemotherapy are left with a dangerously low level of neutrophils," says Dr. Jon Ger- rard, a Winnipeg pediatric on- cologist. "Their bodies can't combat invading bacteria and fungi, and a potentially life- threatening condition known as neutropenia results." Dr. Gerrard, a neutropenia specialist, says infections are one of the most common and the most serious side effects for the 500)() Canadians who un- dergo chemotherapy annually. "Patients with neutropenia arc susceptible to severe, life- threatening infections. Often, further chemotherapy must be delayed or reduced to allow time to rebuild the body's neutrophil supply." Dr. Gerard say%. Even with good clinical man- asemcni of neutropenia. includ- ng hospitalization of the patient and imtravcnoru% antibiotics to treat the %uspoacd infection, death from infection can occur. While neutropenia occurs most frequently, in canoes chemotherapy palwats, it can also occur a% the result of a genetic defect. "Patients with congenital neutropenia battle infection throughout their lives because their bodies are unable to combat bacteria," notes Dr. Gerrard. Chronic congenital neutro- penia is most often diagnosed in children. Because the body can- not produce enough neutrophils to fight infection, a small scrape can lead to a blood infection, a cold can easily develop into pneumonia—and painful mouth sores can be part of daily life. Two-year-old Allison Riley was diagnosed with neutropenia at birth. The Waterloo, Ontario toddler has endured recurring ntouth ulcers, swollen and bleeding gums, and repeated hospitalization. "infection can begin easily from something as small as a scratch and lead to serious prob- lems," says Cathy Riley, Alli- son's mother. "1 have to be careful where she goes and wM. she is in contact with --and take every precaution i can to decrease the transmission of germs." "Congenital neutropenia is very serious because over time, the micro. -organisms in the patient's body may become re- %i%tant to antioiotics," says Dr. Gerrard. "Secondary fungal in- feakm can becernt a severe problem. putting the patient's life at ri%k." The Neuttopcnia Support Association. based in Win- nipeg" n the only known group in the world devoted to provid- ing support and information k> neattcrpema patients and their families. The group is also in- volved is furdra mng. to sup - (2) port ongoing research into cell biology. "We provide information both to the public and the medi- cal community." says I.oma Stevens, founder of the Neutro- penia Support Association. "Neutropenia is a disease that is not well known. and effective treatment has only been re- cently identified. The more in- formation we can provide to physicians, nurses and phar- macists about new treatment options, the better informed everyone will he." Studv into the science of genetic engineering has re- cently led to the discovery of one of the newest treatments for neutropenia. In the 19ii0%, scientists began studying a family of hormones that regulate the production of blood cells. Through DNA tech- nology (cloning). thev were able to produce these hor- mones, known as colonv stimu- lating factors (CSF). in suffi- cient quantities to be used clinicall v. Colony stimulating factors stimulate Mme marrow to pro- duce more blood cells. One of the most important cobra stimulating factor% is G-CSF. which stimulates Mote marrow w produce infection -fighting neutrophil%. For patients with neutropenia. the drug is a life- line. In clinical trials G-CSF was shown to he effective in reduc- ing by !4) per cent the incidence Of pacrtually life-threatcamt; infcctioas is cancer patients treated with chemotherapy. More recent trials carried out at the Univemm. of Michigan Cancer Centre have also found (3) the drug to be nearly 100 per cent effective in patients suffer- ing from the congenital form of neutropenia. The results of a study involving 130 patients, mostly children under 10 and some adults, were described as ..phenomenal" by Dr. Laurence Boxer, who conducted the in- vestigation. "Without G-CSF many of the children in the study would have died from overwhelming infection," he noted. "It's not often in medicine that you can completely turn around a patient's life." New trials are also underway into other blood disorders and cancers where colonv stimulat- ing factors may play a role in treatment. '.Meanwhile. the Neutropenia Support Asscxiation continues to promote awareness of neutro- penia in Canada, and collect new case studies and literature pertaining to the disease. Thcv've developed a neutto- peau "library." which is housed at the Children's Hospital of the Health Sciences Centre in Win- nipeg: they also offer patient support and information through a newsletter and toll free helpline number, 1-Mg)-6- NEUTRu ( I-liX"A3-8ti1-6). "Mara of our members came to realize that they or a loved one suffered from neutre- penia by hearing about it in the media and going to their do cum lex confirmation." say% Stevens. "Orr hope is that we can use the information library that we've established to puss the information along to Canadians right acnus the country."

When you think about Parliament. you probably conjure Lip images of heated debates in Question Period, or quick 15 -second clips where MPs hurriedly express their views on a topic. Usually, this is all that the media presents. One of the things that often goes unreported is the important orW ing committee work that happens behind the scenes. One such panel that I chaired is the subcommittee on Regulations and Competitiveness of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance, the report of which has just been released. This subcommittee was established last April to examine federal regulatory programs and to deter- mine how they affect Canada's competitiveness. The sub- committee also suggested ways to improve the princess. The report details the current environment of regulation in Canada. Regulation is probably the most extensive form of public intervention in the economy, yet effective control over its use is lacking. Regulations serve a wide range of goals, from environmental protection and occupational health and safety to improved information available to in- vestors and consumers. But they also entail costs that in- crease the pntices of goods we buy and can erode the com- petitiveness of our economy. The reforms that we have pro- posed in our report are designed to ensure that the regulators take these effects fully into account when deciding whether and how to regulate. Some of the main recommendations include the proposal that federal and provincial governments adopt mutual recognition of product standards as a general principle of interprovincial trade. It also recommends that federal regulators be required to notify provincial governments of proposed regulatory initiatives. Over the course of my chairing this committee, I heard from many residents of Ontario Riding who were eager to have their views of the regulatory process heard. I invite any constituents who are interested in the findings of this committee to contact my office for a copy of the report. I have had the opportunity to not only sit on, but also to chair numerous House of Commons committees that have dealt with a wide range of subjects_ As I have stated, although they typically do not garner a lot of media atten- tion. I feel that committees such as these serve as an impor- tant component of Parliament, and the results that they produce are of a direct benefit to Canadians. `k i rD 0__0 join the many people who agree not to drink alcoholic beverages... and to drive everyone in their group home safely.

"Hockey has been and continues to be a very im- portant part of my life," said Trever Linden, who started playing minor hockey at the age of five in Medicine Hat. "My years with the Medicine Hat Minor Hockey Association taught me valuable lifetime skills and showed me that there is no secret to success in hockey - as a young player and profes- sional you have to work hard. "Therefore, I'm ex- tremely proud of this op- portunity to be Chairman for the CAHA's Minor Hockey Week and share with youngsters across Canada my hockey ex- periences,' said Trevor Linden - Esso Medal of Achievement Winner at the age of 12: Memorial Cup Champion with the Medicine Hat Tigers in 1987 and 1988: and Gold medalist at the 19M World Junior Championship.

Bill MacGillivarv, Chair- man of Minor Hockey for the CAHA, stated, "in the 79th year of the CAHA and 35th Annual Minor Hockey Week, we must never forget the tremendous in- fluence that the hockey volunteers have had on the young players involved in this great game.

If you said winning, better read on. Fair Play is the Fast Commandment, and is based on this Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be treated yourself. You and the parents of your players are responsible for instilling this Fair Play attitude. Everyone must show respect for rules, referees, teammates and opposing players and coaches. You can start by setting a good example. Don't argue with referees or opposing players and coaches, and teach your players to never check or hit in a manner that might cause injury to an opponent. There's nothing wrong with winning, but overemphasizing it can lead to decreased enjoyment and restricted participation for players, and result in undesirable behavior and high anxiety levels. Never ridicule or condemn your players for making mistakes or losing games, and don't overplay your talented players. All players have a right to fair ice time. Always consider the welfare of your Players first, by making certain they are participating in a safe environment. Ensure that facilities, equipment and practices are safe and appropriate to the age and ability level of your players. Downplay toughness and intimidation, and stress that players should never hit an opponent from behind. Teach attitudes first, skills second, Good coaches emphasize having fun, developing Positive values, personal development and satisfaction, and improving health and fitness.
