My Project
The Flag Football team is in need of some much-needed items so we can have another successful season. In our first season, we had a winning record and most of the players will be returning players. Flag football is a growing sport in high schools as well as many colleges. I want to provide my athletes with everything they need to become successful and prepare them for the collegiate level if that is what they decide. Many of these colleges offer scholarships to these athletes and I want to give them every opportunity for these scholarships.
We can't play in the games if we do not have game-day footballs.
We need the specific TDY-size footballs that each team has to provide at each game. I picked a football with some green on it to match our school colors and not get mixed up with the opposing team.
One of the biggest injuries in flag football involves the fingers. The ice packs will be readily available for any injuries the players may have during practice and the games.
We play at multiple different fields, some of which have benches for the team to sit and rest and some which do not. The foldable bench will be used for the games for the athletes to rest on before, during, and between games.
The wagon will be used to carry all of our equipment on game days. We will need to bring a tent for shade, a cooler for our water, our footballs, helmets, belts, a first aid kit, and a few more items for the day.
Flag Football is a growing sport and we are very excited to be involved. We are grateful for any donation or support you can give our team. Go, TEAM!!
