| Science fair has been a really great experience for me. My project, about concussions and head injuries that can be caused by a soccer header at varying temperature ranges, was inspired by my own experiences playing soccer. I would like to further investigate the possibility of creating soccer balls that create a safer environment for the players. I attend Prince of Wales Mini School and a few of my main interests are soccer, baseball and piano. For other student thinking about doing a project, I would recommend doing something you are interested in. That makes Science Fair a much greater experience. |

Heated Header-Aches
| Défi: | Découverte | | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | | Région: | Greater Vancouver | | Ville: | Vancouver, BC | | École: | Prince of Wales Secondary | | Sommaire: | Concussions are a quickly growing problem in modern day sports. This experiment investigated the potential concussive properties of a soccer header due to the change of temperatures. I concluded that due to the reduction of air pressure and the lowered coefficient of restitution, soccer balls exposed to lower temperatures posses more concussive potential during a header, especially for teens ages 15-19. |
