One-Handed Basketball Players

Zach Hodskins Plays High School Basketball With One Arm

— December 20, 2012 — Lifestyle
Zach Hodskins is a 16 year-old junior high school student who plays basketball with one hand.

This video compilation shows Zach Hodskins and his incredible skills. This is a very inspirational video because initially, everyone who hears about this story wonders how it is at all possible. However, after only a few seconds of the video it becomes clear this kid is just as good, if not better, than his fellow students with two hands.

He moves fluidly and has incredible ball control and shooting accuracy. The video shows Zach Hodskins schooling his opponents with quick, one-handed dribbling and pin point-accurate shooting. Zach plays for Georgia high school and shoots over 60% from three point range.

“They say that my shot is more fundamental than kids with two hands because they use their left hand too much to guide their shot,” Hodskins told the Brentwood Home Page.
Trend Themes
1. Adaptive Athletics - The rise of athletes with disabilities competing in traditional sports presents opportunities for innovation in equipment design and training techniques.
2. Injury Prevention Technology - As more athletes play with disabilities, there is an opportunity for innovation in specialized gear and technology designed to increase safety and prevent injury.
3. Diversity and Inclusion in Sports - Zach Hodskins and others like him challenge traditional ideas of who can play and excel in sports, creating opportunities for innovation in sports marketing, media, and community outreach.
Industry Implications
1. Sports Equipment - Sports equipment manufacturers can develop specialized gear and equipment to accommodate athletes with disabilities and prevent injury.
2. Rehabilitation and Medical Devices - Companies that produce rehabilitation and medical devices have an opportunity to develop innovative products to support the unique needs of athletes with disabilities.
3. Sports Media and Marketing - Sports media and marketing firms can leverage the growing interest in adaptive athletics to create new campaigns, sponsorships, and outreach programs that promote diversity and inclusion in sports.
