Abstract
Advances in the chemical and materials sciences have had dramatic impact on sporting events. In this paper, we discuss some of the chemicals and materials involved in these advances with the intention of providing a mechanism to interest students in chemistry. Structures and properties of some materials that led to their adoption in sports and ideas for incorporating this information into the classroom are presented.
