Rocky Point Park is a cost-free activity and it’s great for young families as they have a big open field, water

to ensure the availability of the broadest range of recreation opportunities for every individual and group
consistent with available community resources and needs" which Rocky Point does just that (Lunn, 2021, p.

different categories "travel and tourism, entertainment services, leisure services in the natural

improving youth basketball players and "growing the game" of

the coaches are all volunteer. The TCYBA organization and "[a]ll
voluntary sector leisure and recreation organizations have one
thing in common – they rely on the efforts of members and
volunteers for sustained survival" (Lunn, 2021, p. 10). If it wasn't for
the volunteer coaches, they would not be able to continue having
this organization.

19. The Connection:
Coaching
The TCYBA organization connects to our coaching component in SPSC
2210. This is an example of coaching because all the coaches volunteering
for TCYBA would have had to complete some NCCP qualifications and a
criminal record check. They also would have to plan practices, game
schedules, and plan the goals for the season just like what we do in many
of our NCCP workbooks. The federal government's goal for recreation is
"[t]o promote health and well-being

and coaches can help guide children to work on their health and wellbeing
through the game of basketball.
