WHAT PLAYING 4 SQUARE TAUGHT ME
I looked out the window of my hotel room into the open plaza
in front of the Kansas City Convention Center, and I saw four square courts. I
had not thought of four square in years. This game dominated recess in my
elementary years at Alcott Elementary in Riverside, California.
The first thing I remembered is that I was competitive. But then I thought about it more, and realized I wasn't very good at it. Competitive but not very good. Often I would work my way up from square 4 to square 1, even though my coordination was abysmal. Why?
