LATEST UPDATE CONGRESSIONAL BILL http://www.house.gov/list/hearing/nj01_andrews/bully.html
Children’s Defense Fund Action Council (CDFAC) named Congressman Andrews as one of the “Best Representatives for Children.” http://www.house.gov/apps/list/hearing/nj01_andrews/child.html
INVENTOR'S NOTE: Well designed sport and recreation programs put children on a positive path to healthy development. Regular activity and play are essential for physical, mental, psychological and social development. Sport and recreation improve health and well being, extend life expectancy and reduce the likelihood of several non-communicable diseases including heart disease and obiesty. Sport and recreation serve as tools to teach important values and life skills including self confidence, teamwork, communication, inclusion, discipline, respect and fair play. Sport also has psychological benefits such as reducing depression and improving concentration. Khwikball (sport & play) has a positive impact on child education. Physical education typically improves a child’s ability to learn, increases concentration, attendance and overall achievement. Children learn better when they are having fun and being active. Khwikball was developed for all-inclusion man/women-boys/girls equally. The skills and values learned through sport and play are especially important for girls, given that they have fewer opportunities than boys for social interaction outside the home. Through sport, girls are given the chance to be leaders, improve their self-confidence and self-esteem, acquire new interpersonal links and access new opportunities. As I have developed and shown, Khwikball is a catalyst for the economic development of communities. Training of coaches and physical education teachers leads directly to jobs; sport events can have significant economic impact; and sport manufacturing can be a resource economically. The popularity and convening power of sport provides us with a powerful tool for reaching people and communicating important standards including messages of health and social value. Khwikball brings people together and has the potential to cross boundaries and open new dialogue between cultures. Many of the core values of Khwikball parallel those necessary for peace and unity such as respect, justice and honesty.
