These sessions will focus on utilizing the PLAY tools to
assess the physical literacy status of children and youth –
primarily between the ages of 7 and 13. As part of the
PLAY Research Project lead by CS4L and Brock University
you will be asked to utilize the PLAY assessment to
identify the physical literacy level of children in programs
you deliver over an 11 month period. More information
about PLAY can be found at PLAY.physicalliteracy.ca
Physical Literacy 201:
Physical Literacy Assessment for Youth
Drew Mitchell BSc.
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. There are numerous
opportunities and applications for these tools, including
physical literacy awareness for parents and coaches,
global and individual tracking of physical literacy,
assessing the impact of your programs on physical
literacy development and research applications.
