Purpose
To effectively explain how to throw a lacrosse ball to a young audience
Audience
I want to connect with a younger audience, specifically ones to decide that they want to play lacrosse and need someone to show them how to go from picking up a stick for the first time to actually being able to throw a ball around with someone. I think that my audience will most likely be 5th grade to high school kids.
Context
I think that the context for this prompt might include a youtube video, to an instruction booklet. When starting out, most kids do not want to go to the first day of peewee ball practice and not even know how to throw a ball with someone else. This instruction set would help those proactive learners get a jump on the competition.
Strategies
I think that my strategy should be very informal because my audience is not looking for a very professional document. My audience is looking for a very simple and easy to follow set of instructions to help them gain an edge. I think that a turn by turn set of directions with pictures will be the most helpful
Medium
A print out or video would be quite effective for those interested in learning how to throw a lacrosse ball with their friends
Arrangement
I do not think that my arrangement will be too detailed because my audience will not be interested in much more than a set of step by step instructions
Testing
For testing, I could go to a local high school and test the directions on freshman that have never played.

Feedback Lacrosse for younger audience
The audience element was covered very well. Noah specifically defines his audience as younger school age students who are wanting to learn to throw a lacrosse ball with have no previous experience.
I think the arrangement could use more detail, maybe just go into a little more detail about the step by step instructions or even another way of arranging the information.
Feedback
In my opinion, testing is covered most efficiently. The idea of going to a High School and finding freshmen to attempt the instructions plan is a very good way to find unbiased faults.
I think the title itself is the most lacking factor in this design plan. Maybe a more direct and detailed title would be more enticing to the audience.
This design plan is similar to mine because we both want to find beginners to test our instructions.
I agree that pictures will be very effective in the strategies section, but I think there are more possibilities to draw a younger audience in.
