For grade 9 there is a province wide take your kid to work day! Sadly I had field hockey provincials the exact same week so I couldn’t go. So my teacher and I made a new driving question and task for field hockey provincials. My task was to make a documentary about Provincials and the driving question was: “How does field hockey affect your career choices in the future?”. So without further ado lets get into it!

Task!

Criteria for the video: 

This is the criteria for my documentary and reading this sparked my ideas. I was really excited about the digitally enhanced criteria because I could use a bunch of cool transitions and videos from playing field hockey. For the interviews got to meet a bunch of people who had an interesting life in field hockey. I got to meet a Canadian national team member who played in the Olympic’s and she got a bronze metal at the field hockey World Cup. I also got to meet a Canadian national team coach who gave us some great advice. Here’s a video of my favourite interview: 

My video!

Finally I loved making this video and credit to Eleanor a grade 8 on our team for filming so many moments on the pitch. Make sure to check out my video:

How does field hockey affect your career choices in the future?

Personally over this tournament I have realized that it can affect my life in many ways. All I hope is that I’m happy wherever I end it up and that is how I want field hockey to affect my life! That’s my provincials blog!
