Abstract The purpose of my project was to see which material ( foam, cardboard, cork sheet, sponge, microfibre material, cotton balls, or neoprene material ) causes a ball to bounce the highest when dropped from 100cm. By testing these different materials I can find out which material makes the best shoe sole for athletes that play sports that involve frequent jumping such as basketball and volleyball.
