Winning is a great feeling, but there other goals we set ourselves when playing sport. Fair play and good sporting behaviour help make the activity enjoyable for everyone involved. This documentary-style program will explore: what good sportsmanship is, codes of conduct for players, officials, coaches and spectators, being a team player, a good loser and winner, and resolving conflict, using practical examples. We talk with professional soccer player Mate Dugandzic, basketballer Daniel Dillon, rugby referee Natalie Amor, soccer referee Wilson Brown, and international rugby referee Nigel Owens. For middle secondary studies in physical and outdoor education, this production provides valuable advice regarding the benefits of teamwork, mutual respect, and taking personal and social responsibility.

Beneath our skin, numerous systems are enacting complex processes, each as important as the other. Through detailed diagrams and animations, discover the hidden wonders of the skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, repertory and nervous system. We explain how these essential system work in conjunction with each other to create these amazing machines we call the human body. Throughout this program we examine each of these systems, their parts, their functions and how they work. We also explore the contribution and interaction of these vital systems when we exercise and while we rest.

The human body is always on the move. Whether we are jumping, running or sitting still; blood is pumping, muscles are contracting, and joints are moving. The body's internal systems perform complex processes every second of every day, so we can spend our time doing whatever we need to. This Australian-made, curriculum fit program takes us inside the human body, showing us just how the musculoskeletal and cardio-respiratory systems work and how they influence and respond to movement. This information-packed program is presented in a clear and logical format, with vivid animations and real-life examples that will engage viewers from start to finish.

When beginning any health and fitness program we need to test our health-related and skill-related components of fitness in order to expose our strengths and weakness and to determine what components we need to work on. This doesn't just apply to a trained athlete, but is just as relevant to the untrained person of any age. In this Australian-made, curriculum fit program we learn practical tests that measure the health-related and skill-related components of fitness, how to apply the FITT principle to a training program, and what happens to the cardio-respiratory system when we exercise.

How can we use biomechanical principles to enhance performance? Trained athletes, fitness fanatics, and casual exercisers alike can all benefit from an understanding of biomechanics. In this Australian-made, curriculum fit program we see the main types of motion in action and learn how to calculate velocity, acceleration and momentum. We examine the two types of balance, discover the importance of knowing your centre of gravity and learn how to calculate force. We also explore the principles of fluid mechanics, including buoyancy, displacement and resistance. This is an action-packed, insightful examination of the mechanics of our bodies in motion.

The ultimate goal of any aspiring athlete is to execute skills with form and efficiency. This program provides a detailed theoretical understanding of how skills are developed and honed to an elite level. We learn the difference between skills and abilities, explore types of skills, step through the three stages of skill acquisition, and discuss how everyone learns at a different rate. We also discuss internal and external factors that affect performance and learn useful techniques to evaluate performance. All of this theory is underpinned throughout the program by real-life examples and expert advice from head coach Gary Wagner and sports psychologist Shayne Hanks.

This program looks at the physics of human movement. It begins by examining some of the fundamentals of mechanics, including Newton's laws, types of forces, force summation, inertia, momentum and acceleration. It also covers the three types of levers - first, second and third class - and investigates where levers exist in the human body. Types of motion; friction, balance and stability in relation to biomechanics and the human body are also explored.

This program is a comprehensive guide to the classification and management of sports injuries. Wendy Braybon, head physiotherapist at the Victorian Institute of Sport, shows us how to classify and manage soft tissue injuries (such as sprains, skin abrasions, lacerations, and blisters) and hard tissue injuries (fractures and dislocations). We learn to apply the RICER technique for managing soft tissue injuries and the TOTAPS and DRABC techniques for assessing and managing hard tissue injuries. Throughout the program we see detailed graphics and real-life examples of different injuries, talk to Paralympian Jessica Gallagher, and see dramatised scenarios demonstrating key injury management techniques.
