Welcome to my Senior Capstone Project!
This semester I have had the opportunity to Intern at the Schotland Family Y as a Youth Sports Instructor. I have instructed both tumbling and basketball class for children age 3-12. During my experience I was observing ways the kids could potentially be learning beyond physical movement. For my capstone project I have found ways kids can improve cognitively, emotionally and socially. Under each skill I explain the importance of the skill, ways to improve the skill, exercises or activities to improve the skill, ways coaches can support growth and supported it with specific evidence. Together this information can be used to support child development through youth sports beyond the physical achievements!
