Being active and playing sport is an excellent means to keep you fit and healthy. It helps not only your physical health but also your mental health. By playing a sport you develop routines along with the opportunity to make many friends. Friends that may well have similar interests to you. But not everyone likes sport and that is often because they don’t think that their good at it. Sometimes a different sport is more a person’s style. As you are probably quiet familiar with the different sports played in Australia maybe checking out those played in other countries could be more your style?
The task of this module is to look at other sports not so well known in Australia. To find out where and how they are played then to create an A3 poster promoting one of them to Australians. Use the library or a search engine (i.e. Google) to look up information. Then set about planning your poster!

- Make sure the Slogan (title) and authors’ names are prominent and eye-catching
- Tell a story: provide clear flow of information from introduction to conclusion.
- Focus on your theme - a common fault is to try to cover too much, so get to the point.
- Use graphs, tables, diagrams and images where appropriate. You can use boxes to isolate and emphasise specific points.
- Follow the brief’s guidelines and choose one of the health aspects covered
- Add your logo.
Design suggestions.
- Use all the space at your disposal, but do not cram in the content - white space is an important part of the layout, and good use of it can make a poster elegant and arresting.
- Use colour sparingly - limited use of a few colours is more striking than a 'rainbow' approach. Think about why you are using colour; it is especially useful for emphasis and differentiation.
colour-blindness (e.g. red and green in proximity).
- Use white or muted colour background (e.g. pastel shades)
- The flow of information should be clear from the layout.
- Clearly label diagrams/drawings and provide references to them in the text where necessary.
- The slogan text should be readable from 6 metres away - at least 48-point text. The body text should be readable from 2 metres away - at least 24-point text
- Choose a clear font with large inner space (i.e. the space inside the loops of letters such as 'o', 'd', 'p'). Good examples are Arial, Verdana, Georgia or Helvetica.
