Soccer rules and Regulations

Soccer rules

Rules of Table Tennis (simplified)

Scoring 
A match is played best 3 of 5 games (or 4/7 or 5/9). For each game, the first player to reach 11 points wins that game, however a game must be won by at least a two point margin.A point is scored after each ball is put into play (not just when the server wins the point as in volleyball).

The edges of the table are part of the legal table surface, but not the sides.

Flow of the Match
Each player serves two points in a row and then switch server. However, if a score of 10-10 is reached in any game, then each server serves only one point and then the server is switched. After each game, the players switch side of the table. In the final game (ie 5th game), the players switch side again after either player reaches 5 points.

Legal Service
The ball must rest on an open hand palm. Then it must be tossed up at least 6 inches and struck so the ball first bounces on the server's side and then the opponent's side.If the serve is legal except that it touches the net, it is called a let serve. Let serves are not scored and are reserved.

Equipment
The paddle should have a red and a black side. The ball should be either orange or white and 40 mm in size. The table should be 2.74 meters long, 1.525 m wide, and 0.76 m high.

Expectations

Participate to the best of YOUR abilities. Students are expected to bring a change of clothes specifically for PE class. They can wear clothing such as; shorts, t-shirt (long sleeve or short), sweat pants, athletic tights, athletic pants, running shoes or trainers, and socks. Students should then change back into their regular attire after washing (a towel is recommended for this purpose). Students will be expected to perform in skill and knowledge based assessments. YES, this includes quizzes, tests, and homework. Please see above.

Also students will need a 3 ring binder for handouts, vocabulary sheets, and activity logs. Please have this by Monday August 19th (this can be purchased and most stationary stores and Book city has them as well) 

Making up classes and late to class....

If a student misses class for any reason at all, they will receive a zero for that day (1% of participation grade). Students can make up a class by doing one of the following activities during any "B" day lunch period; jog around the track, jump rope or participate in an ACTIVE activity. To make up a class students must participate in one of the above mentioned activities for a total of 40 minutes. This can be done over several lunch periods. After a quarter ends, students cannot make up classes from the previous quarter.

Additionally, if a student is consistently late the result will be a deduction from the participation portion of their grade at a rate of 1% per three late classes. This cannot be made up. If you are late for a legitimate reason (I.e. you were held back in the previous class) please speak to me at the end of the class and, on a case by case basis, we can account for this in you attendance record.
