Sports Statistics

In this unit students are given the opportunity to investigate the sport of their choice, accessing statistics both through surveys and from the internet, and presenting their findings as graphs created on Excel. This unit is a very open unit allowing students freedom to investigate a sport of their choice. It should be noted that not all sports have a great deal of easily accessible statistical data available. If you are not confident of your ability to find data on any sport, another unit may be more suitable, or you could restrict the choice of sports available.
