Variations or Adaptions Since sports are becoming a huge role in many of our students lives i know i will have students in the class that will be more experienced in it than others. I will then challenge them by going to the next level for them by setting higher standards while we are practicing skills. I will have them use opposite arms and shooting sides as well as have them try to aim for certain spots. This will not affect the other students by no means just challenge are more experienced students.
