My Project

We are expanding our athlete student enrollment from 12-15 to 25-30 students for Track and Field. It is about 10 more students joining this spring. That is a new record! However, we have very limited pieces of equipment available for them to use, and they require training for their upcoming competitions. The students must prepare adequately without the risk of injury, especially if they are inexperienced with the equipment. The students are passionate about participating in track and field, and they show up every day to practice. They are eager to know where they can find more equipment to continue practicing. We need starting blocks, relay batons, and discus discs. Additionally, it is great to see more girls interested in participating in this sport this year.
