My name is Kevin Katz and I am a freshman Sport and Rec Management major here. I come from Centreville, Virginia. I love movies and have over 300 dvd’s in my collection. I love comedies most of all and I am always laughing. I keep active all year long and have played just about every competitive sport including soccer, swimming, baseball, basketball, rugby, football, wrestling, and anything else that sparked my interest. I have three brothers that are ages 23, 21 and 16. The 21 year old Will is a senior here at JMU and a big part of why I chose to come here. I plan on writing about my rugby community for my personal narrative. I was on the team for my four years of high school. The team was a great community because it was compiled of people from five high schools in the surrounding area which created a very diverse, but very successful team.
Kevin,
ReplyDeleteRugby is a great topic! Because you have so may experiences as an athlete, you can contrast this sport against other team sports. Keep in mind that you are writing to an audience who is unfamiliar with the sport, so introduce the rules and history as well as your personal experiences within your personal rugby community. Because your team is made up of people from different high schools, I'm sure you have a unique personal experience to write about.
In terms of research, see what fits best into your paper. You may want to focus on the history of the game or site the rules and regulations. If you'd rather focus on your high school team instead of the rugby community in general, you can look for a news article to fill this research component.
i think your topic of the rugby community is a great idea. I know me personally i do not know much about rugby and would be very interested to learn more about the sport and community. did it take a while for you and your teammates to get along, coming from different schools and all?
