My Students

"We miss soccer season! We can't wait until season starts!" This is what we hear from our high school girls during the off season. When asked why they miss it, the most common answer is, we have so much fun! Sports are so good for kids, they teach them so much. These student athletes carry heavy loads of classes, get great grades and commit to playing soccer for their school. Couldn't be prouder of such a great group of girls!

My Project

I am requesting enough practice soccer balls so that my athletes are able to prepare themselves for a successful season. My players say that fun practices enhance learning! Part of making soccer fun is playing fun games and doing fun drills. This can only happen with enough soccer balls so these ladies can strive toward their season goals. While these ladies continue to work to be great soccer players, they are also developing a lifetime love for the sport. Sports in general help students manage their time, lead others and stay in shape. As they move on to their next chapters in their lives, these student athletes are so successful because of all that sports has taught them.
