Year 5 and Year 6 visited the Vertu Motors Newcastle Eagles arena to look at how STEM is involved in everything we do in sport. We looked at data analytics and watched a video to work out shooting percentages. We then carried out our own on-court experiment where we had to shoot and work out or own percentage of shots made compared to shots taken. We also considered the effect that forces have on dribbling, passing and shooting as well as the importance of technology and engineering in developing the correct footwear.
