My Project

Our girls' basketball team is comprised of dedicated and talented young athletes who are passionate about basketball and committed to achieving excellence. By donating, you will contribute to the growth and development of these young ladies, empowering them with valuable life skills such as teamwork, discipline and leadership.

The following equipment listed below will greatly assist in teaching the fundamentals of basketball, which has been a vital part of our success so far:

1. The reversible numbered practice best will be used to split up groups for easy player identification during practice and give another added element to running drills proficiently.

2. The SKLZ solo assist passer/rebounder will be used to train players to catch the ball on the move, set their feet and square up properly before shooting.

3. The D-Man hands up defensive mannequin will be used to teach players to shoot or pass over or around the hands-up defending position.

The lady panthers are ready to pursue another year of hard work and dedication in the sport they love. We thank you for your consideration and especially for your support in this great cause.

Go panthers!
