Drew is the Director of Physical Literacy for Canadian Sport for Life and works as a consultant focused on the development of physical literacy and better sport at the community level. Drew’s goal is to create movement purposeful, skill based and confidence building movement in children, youth, and adults. Developing physical literacy is one of the cornerstones of being Active for Life and having better long-term health outcomes. Better movement skills lead to more choices, more options, more confidence, and potentially more activity! This Mini-Summit will provide participants with the ability to execute, score and interpret the Physical Literacy Assessment for Youth (PLAY) tools in a sport specific setting. The session includes an update on physical literacy trends, which highlight potential roles for sport associations. Participants will leave this session with a renewed sense of urgency to address physical literacy through your strong working knowledge of the PLAY tools and their application.
