For my Senior Showcase I decided to create a Weightlifting Educational Website. It includes a separate tutorial of about 50+ different lifts performed by two of the Sheboygan Falls coaches, and two experienced student athletes who lift on a consistent basis. In the videos the coaches will walk the viewer of the video through the process of how to do the lift, they will also demonstrate each lift while giving the viewer three different tips about each lift.
For the night of my Senior Showcase, I utilized as much of the space as I was given. I set up my tri-fold board on the back part of my table, I set up a TV to the left side so that my audience could better see my website. To the right I set up some Dumb bells for decoration. In the middle I set business cards with the URL to my website for anyone to take if they were interested. At the beginning of the night I will admit that I was nervous, but then again who wasn't? Having strangers curiously walk up to your stand and explaining a years work in 5 minutes isn't exactly easy. When I started to get the feeling that people were actually liking my idea the nerves began to fade and I would lose track of time conversing with my guests. Throughout the night I was visited mainly by people I personally knew, however, I was also visited by a number of coaches from multiple sports. Many of them were impressed with my idea and were eager to have me get approved to be set up in the weight room. By the end of the night I realized that I could really have something worth investing time and money into, and in the near future I plan to make a business of a sort for the sheer purpose of weight lifting. |
"What you have here is a quality product that can be used by a wide spectrum of athletes, especially women who only lift during their sport seasons. We need ideas like this to happen." -Linda Goedert, Girl's Track Head Coach |
