My Students
The students that I work with in the cross country and track & field programs at BHS are some of the hardest working student athletes that I have worked with throughout the years. Not only do they work hard on the athletic field, but they also put in the work in the classroom.
My student-athletes do everything they can to be successful on the athletic field and in the classroom and I would like to give them some new tools to help increase that success.
My Project
Cross country and Track & Field Athletes can be prone to injury when they don't focus on strengthening the whole body. Becoming better runners and athletes is always our focus, but in order to do that, we have to do more than just run.
More and more research has shown that cross country and track & field athletes who focus on strengthening their hip and core areas using tools like Mini Bands have less injuries and become stronger athletes overall.
This project to purchase 20 medium resistance mini bands, 20 heavy resistance mini bands, and 20 extra heave resistance mini bands will give our athletes the ability to work on the hip and core areas with a new tool and reduce the possibility of injury along the way.
More than half of students from low‑income households
