Image result for basketball creative commonsDue to circumstances out of my control, I do not think that I will be able to have enough video interviews of the children to make a whole mini movie.  This has not stopped me. I wrote a script consisting of the point I was attempting to get across with the videos.  I plan to still make a video demonstrating my cause, and will include many pictures and possibly videos.  I think that using my own words and personal experiences will allow me to have a clear message and call to action that will help people.  I am looking for an audience who would have an interest in this video.  I think my target audience would be employers, but I think that the video could have a major impact of a number of different people.  I have learned many things about using imovie to make a video and have talked with a videographer about how he uses settings to set a mood.  Thank you.

First games

Image
Yesterday was a complete success.  Yesterday I participated in coaching our first game.  The team I worked with consisted of 5 players including my older sister.  We played one 30 minute game.  The game was much different than any other competitive sport I have been apart of.  Both teams were very supportive of each other.  Any time someone scored both teams would cheer.  No one was focused on the score of the game, and even now writing this I could not tell you the score. I do not know the score because it did not matter to anyone.  all the players and their families were just happy to be out playing and having a good time.  Many of the kids who struggled to move or focus had their parents or a friend with them helping them to play.  This was a real eye opening experience that changed how I look at what sports can mean to people.  Throughout the entire game the players from each team were giving out high fives, fist bumps, and chee...

Goals and Progress Tracking

Image
Hello my name is Harrison. I am starting basketball clinics for kids who have disabilities which prevent them from being able to participate in other sports.  My goals for these clinics are to give opportunities to kids who are often left out of sports or other activities a group in which they can take part in a fun active sport.  I hope to promote to the kids the fun of being apart of a team as well as instilling a value of being active.  I plan to track my progress by creating videos with the kids taking part in the different games and drills then eventually putting all the videos together to share one big compilation displaying all the progress made by the kids in the clinics.  Another way I will be tracking the progress of the clinics is through the different drills we will cover each week.  We will work to understand the basic skills in basketball that will help to eventually be used in games that we will be playing by the end of the clinics. Please help me...

How I am Learning

Image
This week I met with a close family friend who has done some extensive work in the field of adapted sports.  My friend worked at the U.S. Paralympics facility where she learned the different ways people with limited abilities are able to compete in athletics.  She taught me how her and her colleagues come up with activities for people with physical disabilities.  The most important thing I learned from my friend is that with limited mobility people cannot compete the same as others, so instead of trying to push through the problems that might arise you can try to find new ways to go around them. I think that this will help me in the future by allowing me to understand the difficulties the children are facing and allow me to help them create a new way to overcome them.  In the future I think that this experience will help me understand how to confidently face problems and find different creative solutions to problems.  Thank you for reading!
