My students would LOVE to be able to play actual basketball games. I currently teach a basketball unit but only have two portable goals. With classes of 20-25 students there are LONG lines of students waiting their turn to shoot and no opportunity for mini games to be played. Basketball is a lifetime activity and my goal is to teach students to love to play. I want them to enjoy the game but also enjoy the exercise as well. Having two mounted goals would allow my students to be able to play mini basketball games and all me to host basketball tournaments as behavior incentives.
