Greetings PE Nation!

Ready to start a new school year or new program? Today we explore the nine essential equipment pieces needed to start an effective PE program from scratch, based on experience establishing two programs with minimal resources.

• Sound system is the top priority for making activities more engaging and fun
• Cones serve countless purposes from boundaries to stations to improvised equipment
• Tennis balls provide exceptional value, especially when acquired through donations
• Pool noodles transform games with their safety, affordability, and versatility
• Hula hoops function as collection areas, targets, safety zones, and improvised goals
• Pins provide targets for bowling, hockey, and throwing games
• Gator Skin balls serve multiple functions beyond just dodgeball activities
• Beanbags offer texture variety for throwing, catching, balancing, and point systems
• Poly spots create designated spaces for seating, scoring positions, and game elements

Happy summer,

Dave
