CPE Net Sports vs Foundational & Sport?

[Anonymous]

Wondering if I can get some help from DCUM parents. DS is an incoming 9th grader in the fall.

What sports are involved in CPE Net Sports? Almost all the sports involve some kind of a net (even soccer or lacrosse) so wondering how much this would be different than the Foundational Personal & Sport?

Also, is there any difference taught in the Net Sport in the first semester versus the second semester? And can DS sign up for a semester of Foundational Person & Sports and a semester of the CPE Net Sports?

TIA.

Net sports involve volleyball, badminton, pickleball, ping pong, etc. where they ball is volleyed over a net. Lacrosse and soccer are considered invasion games and not included in net sports curriculum, but will probably be included in Foundations classes. It might depend on the school but at our school students can do Net sports one semester and Foundations another semester (or another PE specialty).

I assume tennis would be another sport that is played. Thank you for this. Sounds fun class.
