2. Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary
Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary is a high school in
Cloverdale and is considered to be in the public
sector. A public sector is “necessary for society” as it
does “public good” and it includes “…sport, age-
related programs, events, arts, leadership, etc.”
(Lunn, 2020, pg. 3).
This is a physical education and recreation example
because it provides “…opportunities for both
genders, all age groups, all ethnic groups, and special
interest groups” in light of the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms (Lunn, 2020, pg. 5). High schools can
improve mental health, decrease stress, anxiety and
depression through physical education. It can
immensely aid a students growth in their
development years by staying active, managing
emotions and betters social skills.

3. Cloverdale Athletic
Park
Cloverdale Athletic Park is a public community park that provides
everyone their “need for recreation” as it is “essential to a person’s
physical and social well-being and to overall quality of life” (Lunn,
2020, pg. 5). This is in the public sector as parks are “deemed a public
good” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 5).
It connects to both coaching and recreation because offering public
leisure and recreation services does good for the community whilst
enhancing quality of life and well-being for everyone (Lunn, 2020).
Parks are a great way to help one stay active whether it be walking
through it or training amongst the turf. It gives peace of mind to every
individual which, under the level of federal government terms,
“promotes health and well-being through recreation and sport” (Lunn,
2020, pg. 4). This park is used by various sports clubs such as Surrey
FC, International Women’s Open Fastpitch, and many others thus
connecting to coaching.

4. Cloverdale Recreation Centre
Cloverdale Recreational Centre is considered as a
public sector as they promote values and ideals to
maintain a healthy lifestyle for the individual
(Lunn, 2020).
This is an example of recreation because under
the municipal level of government, public
recreation “encourages the development of
recreation programs and facilities” (Lunn, 2020,
pg. 5). Cloverdale Rec Centre serves as a basis
for the need of the total community and provides
countless of opportunities for overall quality of
life (Lunn, 2020). It provides to better a person’s
physical and social well-being through the vast
number of programs they offer for all ages.

5. Alice McKay Building
The Alice McKay Building is used for many purposes
such as boxing fights, wrestling, dog training, and
children’s dances and are all considered to be indoor
commercial recreation making it part of the commercial
sector (Lunn, 2020). The building serves a purpose that
satisfies the consumer’s desires whilst creating “revenue
from fees” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 6).
It connects to both coaching and recreation as it is leisure
to watch boxing and wrestling matches and coaches for
boxing. This would mean that since it is commercial
recreation, in which “the consumer pays while the
supplier expects to make a profit”, it is based on demand
and consumer desire (Lunn, 2020, pg. 6). Boxing and
wrestling promotes health and an active lifestyle making
it a recreational activity.

6. Surrey Christian School
– Cloverdale Campus
5950 179 St, Surrey, BC V3S9V9
The Surrey Christian School is considered to be
commercial in which “the consumer pays and the
supplier expects profit” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 6). In
this case, the parent pays and sign their child(s)
to gain a better understanding of themselves
physically, socially and mentally.
This is an example of Physical Education as
students will try to develop their basic movement
skills through PE. Students will also be working
on their physical and social well-being through
physical education as well as learn new
opportunities. A primary focus on play would
substantially help the leaders and teachers of this
facility.

7. Planet Lazer
19033 54 Ave, Surrey, BC V3S4R1
Planet Laser is part of the commercial sector as it
offers services such as leisure and entertainment
(Lunn, 2020). The place is mainly profit oriented
and creates revenue from fees and focuses on the
general public (Lunn, 2020).
This is connected to recreation as it “promotes
health and well-being through recreation and
sports” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 4). Laser tag keeps you
active as you must keep moving so as to not get
tagged by a laser. It indirectly promotes health and
well-being by repetitively doing the same
movement that burns countless of calories. Under
the municipal level of government, laser tag is
considered to “act as a catalyst for recreation
development in the community” and its primary
clients are mainly general public (Lunn, 2020, pg.
5). It also helps with mental health as laser tag is a
great way to distract your mind into doing
something else for a short amount of time with the
people you love thus resulting in increased levels
of confidence and can result in a better
performance.

8. Surrey FC
Surrey, BC
Surrey FC stands for Surrey Football Club and is located in Surrey in which
practices are done in various soccer fields throughout Surrey. Surrey FC is
considered to be a non-profit organization thus making it part of the voluntary sector.
This organization has “ties to local communities and are operated primarily by
volunteers” (ie. the coaches, assistant coaches, etc.) (Lunn, 2020, pg. 8).
This is connected to coaching and recreation as not only do coaches pave the way for
their team during the season but they are the ones who teach the kids about FMS and
BMS. Playing any kind of sport can be considered recreation, Surrey FC promotes
health and living a better lifestyle by staying active through their club. Surrey FC
meets some of the requirements to sustain now and into the future such as focusing
on fundraising and investing in the future (Lunn, 2020). Under the level of federal
government, an accord was made establishing that public and voluntary sectors
create collaborative relationships in order to address “…the needs of society,
including leisure and recreation” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 10). Surrey FC focuses on local
communities, general public, like-minded individuals as part of the organization’s
team, and is based on the soccer seasons to be able to participate in the events and
practices.

9. Canadian Open
Fastpitch
The Women’s Canadian Open Fastpitch is part of
the volunteer sector. To be admitted to watch the
softball games, customers must buy tickets. Those
workers at the gates and tickets, field work, and
setting games up are all volunteers. Volunteer
sectors are primarily ran by volunteers and in the
Canada Open Fastpitch, almost all the workers are
volunteers (Lunn, 2020).
This is connected to recreation and coaching as the
players are being coached in their sport and
softball is a recreational activity. Playing softball
helps keep you active and promote a healthier
lifestyle.

10. Cloverdale Community Football
Association
P.O. Box 36024 Hillcrest Village PO, Surrey, BC V3S7Y5
The Cloverdale Community Football Association (CCFA) is an example of a volunteer
sector as they appreciate the need for volunteers in their community. Similar to that of the
Canadian Open Fastpitch for women, the workers you see mainly consist of volunteers
thus making it part of the volunteer sector and not the commercial sector (Lunn, 2020).
This is connected to both recreation and coaching as the only way to get better in a sport
is through practice with a coach whilst promoting healthy habits. Playing sports help
develop our social well-being, both BMS and FMS, and our mental health thus creating
the love for the game. CCFA does not only excel in the coaching aspect but also the
leisure aspect as the parents of the kids are competitive and enjoy engaging with their
team as much as they can. CCFA makes it so that it is “good for the society and
community as a whole” as they are “organized, non-profit distributing, self-governing,
and voluntary” (Lunn, 2020, pg. 8). With the volunteers working alongside them, it
creates an amazing and positive atmosphere for the players to be in thus making it a great
investment for both parties.
