As the game continues on through their fifth round, the buzz of the cicadas, crickets, and bees arise from their homes to emit their somber drone of summer perspiring oppression. Halfway through the fifth round, Yasufumi Nekomata, who is the Coach of the Nekoma High School volleyball enters the gym with a yellow envelope in his hand.

...Sitting cross-legged on a wooden floor of a gym, I watched as the white ball flew in the air being passed from person to person. As my mom would tell her players how to make the best play possible. I watched as the players threw their bodies across the floor in an effort to keep the ball off of the floor, and stretch to kill the ball. Spending hour after hour at the gym watching, and learning new techniques to become a better player. This is when I knew I wanted to be a volleyball player, and I could not do it without the help from my mom. I would dread waking up at eight in the morning everyday in the humid month of August. My mom dragging me out of bed and taking me to the gym. I would hate sitting on the floor until my body went numb everyday. One practice, I was sitting on the floor dazing off in my young imagination when my mom yelled my name. I jolted out of my daze and walked over to her. Twelve girls were huddled around my mom. They all seemed intimidating. My mom gave me the volleyball, told me to go back to the end line and serve. It seems like an easy task, but when my mom told me if I missed the team would have to run it was not so easy. My hands were sweating and my heart was beating at a...

...Courtney Albertson PHL/320 30 March 2015 Matthew Hazlett SWOT Analysis: Fitness Center Industry It today’s society, “going to the gym” has become a normal phrase heard around the world; however, the fitness center industry is not exactly in the spot light of today’s media and headline news. So, that sparks the interest of what makes the fitness center industry succeed, what are their strengths. What about the fitness center industry in the future; are there weaknesses that could ultimately cause them to fail as a whole? What about opportunities that could add to their success? Are there threats that lean on the shoulders of those managing such an industry? With all this curiosity, a SWOT analysis needed to be done. Are you curious about those results? Are you curious about the future of your gym? Industry Background The fitness center industry only came to light in the 1970s and 1980s with simple cardio (running), and aerobics. Though, in the early 2000s an enormous growth occurred in the industry; in the beginning of the decade there were 16,938 combined gyms and clubs, and by January 2008, there were 29,636 combined gyms and clubs (Franchise Help, 2015). This industry comes in many shapes and colors, so to speak; there are large name-brand franchises such as LA Fitness, 24 Hr. Fitness, and the YMCA, there are small local gyms that are ran by neighbors and friends of a small town, and of course the private, elite country clubs and spas (First Research: Mergent, 2015)...
