My Project
Wrestling teaches athletes how to work through pain and discomfort. Wrestling teaches toughness. Wrestling teaches discipline in every individual and as a team. Our wrestling team works hard all year to build core values and increase physical activity of our students.
Obtaining proper headgear protects against common injuries associated with wrestling, and also aids in performance.
Many of our players want to participate but don't have the ability to obtain their own protective equipment. These headpieces should not be shared to prevent passing of germs. Having headgears enables us to encourage a few more players to participate without the fear of not being protected.
Thank you for any contribution you can make to our team and Athletic Boosters.
