The Etobicoke Volleyball League May Put The Town On The Map

By Ericka Marsh


Small communities often wish to stay small, but they also wish to gain the attention of a wider tourist group. One way small communities around the world have received recognition as a destination for vacation-goers is through sporting events at the Olympics. It is very possible that the Etobicoke Volleyball League may achieve just that goal for the little borough which carries that name.

This small borough is located in Ontario, Canada, and bordered on the south by Lake Ontario. It is a small borough, meaning it has a small town feel, and like most small towns it has made very little name for itself specifically, but through sporting events this can change. This small city is a suburb of Toronto, so athletes have access to modern equipment and trainers in order to prepare for their Olympic dreams.

For visitors to the region, some of the most acclaimed shopping in Toronto is located on these streets. Visitors are encouraged to embark on their journey around October and November so they can get all their Holiday shopping done. They maintain a clean city with a friendly, small-town atmosphere that visitors love; making it a comfortable place to inhabit while taking in the sites.

There are coaches who teach everyone from small three-to-five year-old kids on up to teens and young adults training for Olympic dreams. Elite programs exist for these athletes, preparing them to be on a winning team. Professional players from their national teams are in on it as well, helping to train and prepare many young Olympic hopefuls.

More than the small communities see benefits when sports puts them on the map. Young people all over the world become familiar with places they never knew existed. It becomes a fun and exciting way for young people to learn the geography of the world around them.

In this particular event, a great deal of attention has been paid to the female teams, and this has had a positive impact on the numbers of girls involved in sports. As a rule the media only covers sports played by all-male teams, but this is changing. Young women are seeing that college scholarships and Olympic rewards may be available to them.

Not only do the Olympics act as an equalizer to gender, but in past years it has been a great equalizer to members of minority races. We now see nearly as many women and minorities represented in the Olympic Hall of Fame. As the world recognizes the inherent equality among all people, many new faces can be seen stepping up.

It is more than team building and learning the skills necessary for leadership. To many people, playing in sports is about self-empowerment and a sense of total achievement. The Olympic games is a massive sporting event which is known to be heavily laden in traditions that date back to the ancient days of Rome; and like those old Romans, being a good sport is a key character trait in a leader.
