Hi there! I’m applying for JET and if I’m fortunate enough to become an ALT I’d like to involve myself at my school by helping with their sports programs.
What I want to know is: **Is it possible to get involved in a sport at the schools I teach even if I’m not good at it?**
I grew up playing ice hockey and currently coach ice hockey, but from what I’ve gathered ice hockey is only popular in northern areas like Hokkaido.
I want to be able to involve myself as an ALT in more popular sports in Japan, such as soccer or basketball, even if I don’t have a ton of experience with those sports.
Whether that’s setting up the drills for a practice or running the fitness exercises, anything will do.
Any advice helps!
