Abstract:	In coaching sports, I find the best way to bring the skills needed to the players is by having them repeat the skill in a fun and exciting atmosphere. When players learn muscle memory in an atmosphere in which they also are having fun, the learning is better and stronger. Likewise, by bringing statistical reasoning to the general public through sports applications, statistical lessons are learned better and stronger.
