My Project

This is my second year as head coach. It is a goal of mine to grow my swim program and get more students involved with the team. In a low income district where travel is necessary to practice, this is a difficult task.

Unlike other sports where schools and teams can purchase one set of uniforms to be used for multiple years, swimming requires a new suit each year.

For this reason, our school is unable to provide suits for our team each year, leaving our athletes and their families forced to purchase a new competition suit. By donating to this project you are opening the door for some students who would otherwise be unable to afford to be a part of our swim team due to the cost of swimsuits, goggles, caps, and the pay to play fee.

We thank you in advance for supporting our program and our Athletic Boosters.
