My Project

This is my 9th season as a coach and we have in that time played with the same equipment that had been passed down to us by the graces of others. We have a winning tradition at our school both on and off the softball field. Our Lady Scorpions are exemplary examples of excellence both academically and athletically. In today's world, our female students deserve to have all the opportunities that we can provide to them. It is our investment in our future and the future of our communities.

We are in desperate need of the following materials to allow our female student-athletes to continue to represent our school with pride.

We are in need of the catcher's bag and organizer to transport and carry equipment such as our helmets, catcher's gear, and first aid kit. The water bottles are a necessity so that we may keep our Lady Scorpions hydrated as we navigate through our warm spring season. We appreciate any consideration of funding for the attached items.
