Athletics is expensive, and the upkeep of equipment can chew up a budget. Adding some new protective equipment will give our kids the chance to compete. Every kid who suits up and dreams of throwing the winning touchdown for their favorite team in the Super Bowl doesn't imagine doing it in protective equipment that is nearly the same age as they are. This is the challenge we face. While many programs have their athletes purchase or rent their own equipment, we must provide all of the needs for our program. Helmets, shoulder pads, cleats, everything is borrowed from us for the season and then returned. These pads are not the most expensive, but with the new technology trying to make football a safer sport, these pads will go a long way for us. By donating to our shoulder pad request, our kids will get to feel "big time" at a time when expensive private leagues are pricing low-income families out of the game.
