My players are enthusiastic about basketball. They work hard in the off season to see great results during the season. Our school lacks the resources to provide players with the gear and equipment they need without lots of time spent fundraising. But, even so, our community rallies around the players.
Basketball is a great opportunity to get my players involved and keep them out of trouble.
These boys work hard on the court, let's help them be successful by getting them the resources they need to play basketball effectively!
My Project
Our student athletes need to have individual basketballs and water bottles so that they can be safe playing basketball during COVID-19. The basketballs are high quality and the water bottles will last us through the season.
The players need this equipment so that they have the opportunity to continue basketball even during the pandemic.
Basketball gives our players a way to stay busy and out of trouble. It is a great program to develop boys into men and teach them teamwork skills. Having the right equipment helps with these goals.
