Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
The softball girls are bright, fun, and hardworking students looking for opportunities to be successful. These girls are here every day and push to succeed. They are ready to work and don't complain about what we ask them to do.
Our team is the center of their world, the only stability they know, and the only place where they are held accountable.
The athletes live in areas of concentrated poverty. Many are raised by someone other than a parent. For some, the only meals they have on a consistent basis are at school. Nearly all of them are learning what a team is and how to be on a team.
My Project
The face mask in this project is necessary for our team to play. The pitcher needs to have protection for her face in case a batter would hit a line drive. The headbands in this project will assist the athletes with keeping their hair out of their eyes so that they can see the ball and what is happening on the field.
The visors will help to keep the girls safe and the sun out of their eyes.
If the girls don't have a way to block out the sun, it will be difficult for them to identify the ball. All the items in this project will provide safety for the athletes as they play.
