We are requesting 8 Wilson basketballs to use for our clinics, practices and as game balls. These new basketballs would allow us to have large clinics and help all players get involved in helping our community's children. These would also allow us to have more efficient practices and have more of our shots go through the hoop! These new balls could also be used for open gym during the weekends when many of the community kids come and shoot around. With your help, this project can become a reality. This project is important to me because I want to see kids succeed. Giving them the tools and resources to help them is my goal. I enjoy helping all the athletic programs at our school but I especially enjoy basketball because I am the girls head coach. Help me help them help our community and our children. Thank you!
