My Students

Iota High School is a rural class 3A school in Southwest Louisiana. Many of our athletes come from farming families which makes them some of the hardest working kids you will come across. Because of the very rural surroundings athletics is a major part of our school culture. Our community takes great pride in our athletic teams. There is rarely an empty seat at the majority of the games and competitions. The coaching staff has made it our purpose to give these kids all the tools possible to fulfill their athletic potential

My Project

As most people who are involved in sports can attest, the faster your kids are the more successful they are individually and as a team. Most coaches are always looking for a way to get their kids faster but, for us it is an absolute necessity for our football team to compete against the teams we play.

These speed sleds and speed chutes will give us another set of tools to use on a regular basis with our athletes to improve the speed of our football team.

Our coaching staff firmly believes that we can and will continue to see dramatic improvements if we are provided with these products.
