Sports science fair projects

Science fair projects can be a drag for some students. Incorporate something that they're interested in, such as sports, to make the project less of a chore and more interesting. A soccer ball can become a part of science project through studying the way that it bounces on different surfaces, air pressure experiments, velocity and trajectory.

Study sports as a scientist would for your next science fair project.

Rethink Your Sports Drink

Avid sports fans can turn their love for basketball into a science fair project that will have their fans cheering.
