What I completed is the 2016 I-Poly HS Powder Puff. Not only did I coach the Senior team, but designed the field for play, where the spectators sat, picked the referees and the announcer, and helped put together the outside of the football game concessions and activities.
The component gave me a look into running an older youth game and having to provide a fun experience for a few hundred visitors. In my past IC it was catered mostly to the business side of the running the league but with this IC I got to test out coaching techniques to see which worked the best as well as the designing of the event as a whole.

The component helped reenforce my top answer to my EQ being that coaches ultimently are the deciding factor in have youth sports players return to play again as the girls have been encouraged to play the sports for senior class competitions more so than before Powder Puff as well as I have been asked to help the the next years Juniors team as they want Powder Puff to return to the school.

I will be running the winter football season of AVY Flag Football on my own.

2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
