Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
We have the most hardworking, dedicated individuals who care about family and the true meaning of determination. Our athletes are not only influenced by the 24/7 “oilfield” workforce but are also pressed to help their parents provide for their younger siblings by working jobs of their own after school. That is the honest truth. We need the best workout equipment that will allow our athletes to participate in a rigorous workout during the small amount of time we have them while still being able to go to work in the evening. They have the best attitudes and are often-case the most well behaved, self-driven students in the classroom. They deserve to have the best equipment. Please help us give that to them.
My Project
The materials shown in the list, watches, plyo boxes and medicine balls, will help my cross country and track athletes become faster, stronger, and more agile when it comes to racing against top competitors. Any little item makes a huge impact for our student-athletes reaching their full potential! They will learn how to grow as team players and strong competitors. We, as a team, share the idea of being one family and one unit. This will allow our athletes to feel a part of something larger than themselves and have them push each other to their limitless potential. The watches will allow my athletes to learn the essence of timing and keeping themselves accountable on times. They cannot afford to buy the watches that are needed for timing and mapping out miles. The medicine balls and plyo boxes will help develop the core strength of each athlete, allowing them to become better prepared for competition at the high school, as well as, the collegiate levels.
