Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

At our school, we have three Junior High sports teams: Volleyball, Basketball, and Soccer. To better prepare our younger student athletes for volleyball, we need some lighter and larger balls to help develop coordination.

In order to develop the hand-eye coordination in our younger athletes, we need inflatable balls that are lighter and larger than a regular volleyball so our athletes have more time to move into position and be able to play the ball and not worry about it hurting them.

Volleyball is without a doubt a great team sport that requires quickness and hand-eye coordination. Volleyball does not only benefit you physically, it also a great way to make new friends and develop your interpersonal skills because it requires cooperation and teamwork. These inflatable balls are a great modification that young and inexperienced athletes need to develop coordination.
