Physical

Note that in addition to the specific Credits designed for activities detailed on the following pages, there is a general Physical Credit.

Physical activity has always been popular in The Boys' Brigade, and provide a necessary outlet for a boy's natural energy. Nevertheless it is important that as much variety as is possible is introduced into a Company's training programme, for without this interest will soon wane.

The Physical Activities possible in any one Company will depend upon a number of important considerations, e.g. the time available, premises, equipment, instructors, etc.

Because of the importance and the need to consider physical development training is carried out over 12 practical periods.

Some Companies have access to especial expertise in the form of experienced instructors, local specialist clubs etc. who are prepared to give help and run classes for the Brigade. This general Credit allows the Company staff to recognise achievement in this cases, even where a specific Credit may not be available.
This general Credit allows the Company staff to recognise achievement in this cases, even where a specific Credit may not be available.
When designing your programme it is important to plan for a three year progression that recognises the developing abilities of a boy.
