Welcome to Finch’s Fundamentals! I want my project to help young children get into the game of basketball. The game has been a part of my life for almost 20 years now. Ideally, the audience I want to appeal to is children under the age of 14. This includes developmental elementary school players or middle school players that are going to want to take their game to the next level in high school. My reasoning for wanting to create something like this is because I go home and train or coach some of these younger athletes when they are on winter break and away from their teams. My training normally yields positive results from the athletes, so I think they would also vouch for my instruction. Another interesting observation I made was the lack of this style of content on the internet. Many YouTube and Vimeo videos out there have training towards high school students and adults, but almost nothing on what we can do to bring even younger people into the game.
