Help a High School Football Program

Help me give my students an advatage during practice. Inclement weather can cause damage to leather footballs and we would like to provide composite footballs for practice for when the weather may ruin the leather footballs.

My Project

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am a teacher and coach here at the local high school. Like everywhere else funding is tight and we rely on fundraising to provide most of our practice equipment and other items we need to try and run a successful program for our student-athletes. Over the last several years we have had to replace many large ticket items. This has forced us to put some of the smaller items on the back burner. One of these items where we could use help is practice footballs, especially ones that can handle inclement weather. Like most programs. we use older, leather game balls for practice. Rain/muddy conditions can ruin the best of footballs and will render older footballs unusable for many days at best. These Wilson Composite footballs are the exact same specifications as our regulation game balls, but being a composite material they can handle adverse weather and not be rendered unusable or even ruined. Having these available to use will allow us to practice effectively in poor conditions, especially when indoor space is limited or even unavailable. Please consider helping us out. Thank you
