Geometry in Sports

Winning with Angles and Shapes

Geometry helps athletes and coaches plan the best moves and plays.

Where Geometry Shows Up

  • Marking fields and courts with rectangles and circles.
  • Calculating the best angle for a basketball shot.
  • Using symmetry to set up fair races.

Training Smarter

Geometry helps analyze movements and improve performance.

Examples

  • A soccer goalie positions themselves using angles to cover more of the goal.

  • Track lanes are designed with curves for even racing.
