Best Bones Forever! Volleyball Poster

In cooperation with the Department of Health and Human Services Office on Women's Health, you can download the free Best Bones Forever! Volleyball poster. This new campaign is designed to improve bone health and decrease the risk of osteoporosis. Research shows that bone fracture rates are increasing, and few adolescent girls get the recommended amounts of calcium and vitamin D-the building blocks for strong bones. Osteoporosis is often called a "pediatric disease with geriatric consequences." Childhood and adolescence are the key windows of opportunity for building strong bones and warding off the disease. In girls, close to 90 percent of bone mass is built by age 18. Girls, in particular, are at greatest risk for bone problems. Osteoporosis is four times more common in women than men, and adolescent girls consume calcium and participate in physical activity at lower rates than boys. The new campaign empowers girls ages 9 to 14 to build the best bones forever!

Other campaign materials they have created include a set of five posters, each with messages of how to build the best bones forever (including a poster that focuses on physical activity and another on nutrition). They also have book covers and journals for girls. They can ship these free to any location in the U.S.  For more information on campaign partners and activities, go to the campaign Web site for girls at www.bestbonesforever.gov or for parents at www.bestbonesforever.gov/parents.

FIVB/NORCECA/USAV Skills Posters

TWELVE posters, six of each key skill featuring the USA Gold medal men and six featuring the Gold medal Russian women. Each poster shows a sequential drawing, and 10 or more sequential shots of the world best of the skill demonstrating, along with accompanying text. On the USA Men's side, passing shows Bob Ctvirtlik, spiking Karch Kiraly, setting Jeff Stork, blocking Doug Partie, serving Craig Buck and Dave Saunders and defense, Eric Sato and Troy Tanner. These images should be up on the wall of any gym being used to train volleyball, as they are worth the thousands of words in just great pictures. Very large downloads per poster, we suggest you get them printed on an architect's color plotter, and laminate them to help them last.
