About this Event

Become a soccer scientist!

Using Franklin Institute created activities, explore how the physics of force and motion impact different aspects of the game. In this activity, learners take on the role of sports engineers to test how traction works on the sole of a soccer cleat. Learners will design, build, and test their own prototype soccer cleat. They’ll explore how friction and traction affect movement and performance on different surfaces.
