320 Hickey Dr
Coquitlam, BC, V3K 6G1
Service Sector Public- Hickey Courts is a free
necessity that provides a public good
for Coquitlam (Lunn, 2021, p.3). It
was built by the city and its target
demographic is the general public
(Lunn, 2021, p. 3).
SPSC 2210 Connection This Park is connected to recreation.
It was paid for by local tax dollars
and was built by the municipal
government of Coquitlam (Lunn,
2021). The park has 6 newly built
tennis courts (it was cracked
pavement for the longest time), 2
full-length basketball courts, and a
roller hockey court. It is not the type
of park where schools and community
teams come for their league games
or practices. It solely used for

4. Complete Address Mackin Park Skateboard Park
1046 Brunette Ave
Coquitlam, BC V3K 1E7
Service Sector Public- This skatepark was build so
that skateboarders of all ages would
have place to go and skate with
fellow shredders. This enhances and
strengthens a sense of community
within a society (Lunn, 2021).
SPSC 2210 Connection The SPSC 2110 connection for this
sector is recreation. Skateboarding is
not classified as a form of physical
education or coaching... At least not
at Secondary Schools. Skateboarding
is parallel to bicycles as it is
participated in simply for the joy of
doing it. It is a fun activity that is not
meant to be competitive.

5. Complete Address Poirier Sport & Leisure Complex
633 Poirier Street
Coquitlam, BC V3J 6A9
Service Sector Commercial - this facility is a
commercial sector as the public is
not permitted to come and go as
they please without payment.
Payment is required to use the
equipment at this facility (weight
room, ice rink, swimming pool etc…).
The money then goes into the
complex and is distributed to ensure
the facility continues to operate
correctly (Lunn, 2020).
SPSC 2210 Connection This sector covers all three of the
SPSC 2210 foundations. People can
use the Poirier Complex for fun
recreation such as, family open-ice
skates, or a birthday party at the
swimming pool. Physical education
and coaching is covered in the
facilities exercise room, where public
spin classes are offered, as well as 1-
on-1 personal training.

6. Complete Address Zone Bowling
16-228 Schoolhouse Street
Coquitlam, BC V3K6V7
Service Sector Commercial- Zone bowling is local
business that operates on a ‘pay-to-
play’ structure. In order to have
access to a lane, a financial
transaction must be made, this
payment is turned into a profit for
owners of the bowling alley (Lunn,
2020, p. 6)
SPSC 2210 Connection Zone bowling is an example of
recreation in my community. Bowling
is one of those activities that is used
for social reasons in a relaxed
environment. Often, people go to
bowling alleys for staff and birthday
party’s, where the main purpose is to
be silly and have fun.

7. Complete Address Cue World Billiard Café
1047 Ridgeway Ave
Coquitlam, BC V3J 1S6
Service Sector Commerical – like the other two
sectors, Cue World is open to the
public but it is a privately owned
business that requires a fee payment
to use their quality products and
equipment (Lunn, 2021, p. 8)
SPSC 2210 Connection This is another example of recreation
in Coquitlam. The café is intended
for social and leisure use. I imagine
the owner is a fantastic billiards
player but there are no offerings for
lessons or coaching. Disqualifying the
café from being connected to
physical education and coaching.

Service Sector Voluntary- Coquitlam Metro Ford
Soccer Club is a non-profit sports
program for both youth and adults.
The organization relies on parents
and volunteers to run and make
events possible(Lunn, 2021, p.10).
Yes, there are staff members but this
would not be considered a full time
job that you could support yourself
on. It is very common for each
team/players to be tasked with
fundraising, whether that me raffle
tickets or a 50/50 draw(Lunn, 2021,
p.3)
SPSC 2210 Connection This is an example of physical
education and coaching as the
organization has multiple teams and
coaches devoted to the development
of player talent in a sporting
environment.
