Friday 10-11:30 (most days)

Game Day Jam: Sports & Music Connection introduces students to the basics of several popular U.S. sports, including football, volleyball, hockey, basketball, tennis, soccer, baseball, and golf, taught in two-week increments. For each sport, students will learn the fundamental rules, essential skills, and key strategies, with plenty of opportunities for hands-on practice and teamwork. The course also explores how music plays a vital role in energizing both players and spectators. From football fight songs to the rhythms of tennis matches and soccer chants, students will discover how music enhances the sporting experience and connects with the energy of the game. Through interactive lessons, they will not only gain an understanding of athletic fundamentals but also appreciate the cultural significance of sports and their musical ties. This well-rounded approach fosters teamwork, sportsmanship, and an appreciation for both physical activity and the cultural impact of sports music in the U.S.
