There were a lot of thing that I did this summer that are considered “scientific” but thing i’m going to choose is when I went to Halifax to play in the basketball U15 provincials. I was able to represent my province and compete against other provinces to win the gold medal. It was an amazing experience for me and something that I will remember for a long time. In the game of Basketball the goal is to throw the circular ball into the hoop which is 10 feet high. When you want to make a layup for instance you must take in account the speed you are going and the speed that that the ball will need to go in the basket. When you want to shoot a ball you will always want there to be backspin, the backspin loses energy on the bounce which will help the ball have a better arc, and guide it into the basket, and that is the scientific thing thatI did this summer.
