This article describes how school libraries can support a rewarding collaborative effort with the school's physical education teachers by offering reading materials such as commercially available sports information packets, fiction and nonfiction books, Web sites, and magazine or newspaper articles available in hard copy or online. Such a program has the potential to cut down on excuses for nonparticipation. It also supports school goals for literacy and reading in content areas, while encouraging students to take physical education seriously, in terms of educating the whole person for lifetime fitness.
