It is very important for kids to learn fundamentals in sports, and the appropriate equipment is just as important. Our young kids are often overlooked by our athletic department, most of their concentration is on kids third grade and up. They fail to see that basic fundamental skills such as dribbling a basketball or a soccer ball starts at a much younger age. Throwing a ball such as a football requires more than just gripping. The fundamentals of body position, windup, and throwing starts at a very young age. My goal is to begin the process at a much younger age with fun game activities but the appropriate age equipment is needed. The soccer balls, footballs, basketball, and volleyball sets I have chosen is size appropriate for the grade level of students I am targeting with this project.
