Good math-based, sports-related investigations for middle schoolers?

I'm looking for some sports-related ways to approach math for kids (middle school to early high school). Ideally, looking for high-concept approaches (e.g. "How can knowing about math help me to win at sports?") that could become long-form projects/investigations rather than short one-off activities.
