It was this clinic that brought another major component into our athletic plan. We added some components of BFS program to our PE classes. The PE teachers utilize many of the features of BFS, such as the dot drill. It is a great sight to walk into a gym class and see forty students of all abilities doing the Dot Drill at the same time. The PE teachers promote the whole program for those who want to use the weight room. <br>Since Portola is a small school, we have to develop the students we have. We don t have the luxury of the numbers some of the schools have. Most of the best athletes have to play both ways, so our conditioning must be superior. As the 1998 JV team grew into the 2000 Varsity team, their lifting sessions became more intense and dedicated.<br>Our project has been successful. We have restored our self-esteem. Winning has also brought the community together to support our football program.  It is all worth the effort, to see our players faces after our division championship, said coach Bass. More students have expressed an interest in playing next year. Our next challenge is now on our doorstep. Can we sustain this energy level? I believe so, with the help of the Bigger Faster Stronger Program.<br><br>" <br>The BFS Program provides a plan the athletes love, because it is motivational. It promotes goal setting, record breaking and teamwork. Athletes can set PR s everyday! The athletes want to continue lifting. It is no longer just hard work, it is FUN!<br> --Howard ThomasyRj#24kq'᎕?֒Ļ yr2O{s+zc_'5זOTdߛЙ%d|zcE5i!}NKs[DBGlK%>4|I$6$S'22\P1ݰJ/$2JA*Ajm'Hhޥ*@Sp5vH8en0C>͐0Ojn+C^Ydu[%i_g]FEڦ[Q}VݙΧ 7e"HfJ>8m ͣU'v Jo#/-d@ulb=:iJ D)ZUd_sh$nyrM7\?lkK B1D )V(:[z㌑!OV`!slUw9:%sw]yу`MaV~U/r(xƇr!E *{UxȰLDs4=Ky^\3ǎe@m)JḟtRFx ?F7n8ڜߌ?g_ȼmQx(T*"7rP$DQGUx eOkjTO݁c`V)f,cq ee؉#&hXhmk0ו5q{%Ƥjs]A>:})~4˖M.~_)&@͎6I2ԎBn|9[Gxն s\$Ig/alP !FFqkFG4?'WpŸe)SV,ceY#|~/2EepfQdKimp**JWڝ8/O9q4W^g2Ʊr1)h& 튗W_ xb(Y>a}JFI(xVg )%FE& ؎+G.ɘ`GoXZLr:ąW rHDK!fa}Ǜ.2B@WB5<~\Q&<[rlɢþ]r]A: |886M6BvVО2X 3/^5X}!F<].maoVA4I%4=̅ 5BZ >'1F0woau8tpWIQ`j[:ٶ!00)nw-v; >ZM5f,1bL_1iÕ< Yå@UVhݼ >h3v>^}Ed P?S|tɺ;8V*m8r
