My Project

Our Academy is a small PreK-High School school. Our middle school (grades 6th-8th) is often overlooked for sports funding. This project will help motivate our young student athletes and build on their skills on and off the court.

Our volleyball, basketball, baseball and softball teams are in need of some new equipment such as basketballs, baseballs, baseball bases, bats, volleyball setters nets, and scorebooks.

This year we are developing a Middle School Flag Football team. In order to do so we will need pennies, flag football belts, footballs, cones, measuring tracker/paint, and scoreboards.

Ms. Brazell Trillium Academy Grades 6-8
