I # • -tf ^• Page 18-THE NEWS-November 1993 JCC Health / PE SCOREBOARD By Paul Denny, Athletic Director It has been yet another fan tastic month in the world of JCC Athletics. Teen 3 on 3 Basketball had played a few weeks of their season. Derek Haffman, Eric Strugatsky and David Smith were the early standings leaders. Warren Cornelius, who had been having an all-star like season, was put on the disabled list for the remainder of the season due to a broken wrist. Just wait till next season . . . The Youth Soccer Teams were out there being awesome again. We all know that learning and having fun are the main ideas. But, when all three teams posted “lop-sided, let’s-work-on-some- passing-instead-of-scoring- skills” shutouts on the same day (6-0, 7-0 and 8-0), one can’t help but smile (ok, and maybe gloat a bit). Some of the top players include Zach Weinstein, Laura Martin, Ross Mehlman, Brian Goldsmith, Stuart Miller, Scott Mehlman, Michael Edelstein and Benji Katz. However, it has been a whole team effort thus far. Youth Pre-Hoopsters have been getting better and better. These guys will all be seasoned veterans by the time the regular season starts. The Adult Racquetball Leagues have just begun. More about them when the season gets along. AduJt Basketball was able to get two weeks of games in before GET WET By Tim Frank With cooler weather on its way this may not seem like the season to think of swimming lessons. However, it is actually an appropriate time to consider enrolling your children in a swim program to prepare them for next summer’s activities, as well as the Winter swim team. It is important to start swimming activities now in order to allow adequate time for the develop ment of aquatic skills and phys ical endurance. The Charlotte JCC Aquatic Department is offering a variety of programs including Private Swim Lessons (all ages). Parent Infant Water Adjustment, Mil lie’s Minnows, Preschool les sons, Youth Swim lessons. Youth Stroke Clinics, Aqua Fitness, Aqua Aerobics, Arthri tis Foundation Aquatic Pro gram, W.E.T ... One on One, Water Walking, Swim Fitness, and Swim the Jordan. Fall Session III of Aquatic Programs begins Nov. 14 and runs through Dec. 18. You should also keep in mind that indoor pool environment is a very warm place to be on these chilly autumn days. So make plans to enjoy yourself and your f^amily by getting in the swim of things today. The Charlotte JCC’s Barbara Levine Indoor Pool is open seven days a week and offers open swim times as well as a variety of aquatic programs for all ages. A pool schedule and program informa tion can be found in the J’s Fall Program Guide. For any addi tional information call Tim Frank, 366-5007 ext. 293. M A Z E L T O V Serving the Southeast ^ Rabbi Ariel Asa ^ Certified Mohel 912/352-9604 ^ FitNews By Andrea Jones the holidays. Early on, it was the league’s youngest player who was at the top in scoring. Harry Tepper led with a 21.0 avg while Scott Cooper was second with 20,0 ppg. In their own personal battle, Scott Hirsch led Joel Isac 39 points to 34. Bets are high on this one. Meanwhile, Mike “as good as” Gold continues to dazzle the fans with his creative passing and imaginative shot- making. GO MIKE! Adult Softball was in full swing with all teams playing fairly evenly. Rookie Richard Harris led in batting with a .727 avg and was also tied for first in home runs with Rick Cantor. Each had 3 dingers. Tim Garney was second in batting with .706, while Steve Ostrow and Rick Cantor were tied for third with a .667 avg. Tim Garney led in the doubles department with 9 and Marty Forcina had the most triples with 3. It took David Grubler one game to get enough bases on balls to lead the league. He walked 4 times in less than an hour, and he even did it without his Flintstojie’s hat. Steve Ostrow wins for the most bizarre attempt at a put-out. The journeyman shortstop attemp ted to bat the ball in the air with his glove, several times before nudging the ball over to second base for the force play. Unfor tunately his attempt failed mis erably. For over 20 years, both med ical and exercise experts have emphasized the importance of regular participation in aerobic activities (walking, cycling, jog ging, etc.) for developing a healthy heart and maintaining optimal body weight. It has come to light in recent years that aerobic activity alone isn’t enough. You can have an effi cient heart and lungs and yet not have enough strength to perform certain activities, such as climb ing stairs, mowing your lawn, cleaning your house. Unfortu nately, with each passing year over the age of 30, you will lose more strength. If you do not engage in exercise specifically designed to enhance your mus cular fitness, the loss of strength will be significant. You need to develop and maintain an ade quate level of functional fit ness—which is defined as the ability to perform activities of daily living without undue fa tigue or risk of injury. In order to be functionally fit, you need to be both muscularly fit and aerobically fit. So, if you are only doing aerobic activity, give me a call to schedule an appoint ment for One on One Weight Training to learn the proper techniques for using free weights. f^ession II of the “J” aerobics program begins Nov. I and runs through the end of the yeai. Member fees are $40 and non member fees are $65 for the session. Therapeutic Massage Janet Chandler is experienced in Swedish Massage.
