Compass Sport <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adventure sport is one of the\nmost popular and fast-growing sport types within High Schools and adults\nalike. It consists of mountain-bike\nriding, navigation and mapwork, abseil, rock climbing, rowing, running and\nwalking along with other obstacles. \nBecause adventure sports in not very familiar to students and the\ninterest shown is of great proportion, we have decided to facilitate adventure\nsports camps where all the basic skills and training necessary will be taught.\nThe camp will be hosted by none other than Mr. Christo Horn that is an\nexperienced adventure sport facilitator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adventure or Extreme sports are\nnot about defeating nature \u2013 they are about conquering one\u2019s self, and we all\nknow that adventure or extreme sports is busy stealing the spotlight. Whether\nan adult or scholar, a wrongly perceived conception of the sport is that people\nwho participate in such events show off, not highlighting the fact that the\nunique techniques taught not only help you in everyday life activities and\nstrategies but also strengthen the ability to work in groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Safety has been the number one\npriority in any race offered at National and Provincial levels. As we all know,\nthere is a risk in offering activities like river rafting, abseiling, etc.\ntherefore we will not allow any activity to take place without proper safety\nmeasures in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will not allow a member in\nwater without a life jacket, no bicycle helmet, no ride, no helmet, no climb or\nabseil etc. We find it is the children who enjoy the extreme type of sports\nthat join adventure racing. There is the element of danger involved which\nattracts some or racing top speed downhill on a mountain bike, climbing on\nnatural rock or cliff jumping into a river, which attracts many of the\nchildren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has been found in the Primary\nSchools that Adventure Racing has had a very good effect on the Remedial\nchildren and those with Attention Deficit Disorder. It gives many children a\ntremendous confidence booster and as any one race is never the same and\ncontains so many different elements, children who tend to be easily bored love\nthese sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is only the cost factor of this sport that can be viewed as a problem otherwise these activities only promote a tremendous love for being outdoors, occupying young and mature minds alike, keeping body and mind fit, focus boundless energy, incorporate good, clean fun and often are the one thing that keeps youngsters out of trouble. It is normally found that those children who don\u2019t do sport or have anything to do and no meaningful goal that wind up filling their time with unhealthy and often dangerous pastimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adventure Racing definitely promotes teamwork whereby\nadults and children must depend on their team-mates emotionally, physically and\nmentally. It is found that those who do this sport generally end up in\nleadership positions within their schools and careers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
