My Students

My players are reaching out from families that can't afford to play organized sports. Most of our players are coming from areas where they can't afford the best. We need more coaching tools for our youth practices for this team to be able to compete against other teams.

We need more equipment for kids that can't afford to buy it on their own.

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Many examples are already well documented that sports help build character and even motivate kids to do better in school.

My Project

We are training for the season but the weather is keeping us off the fields during the rainy, snowy season. The coaches purchased some software that allows our players to train indoors but we can't afford the VR that it goes with to use it.

We need the VR headset and projector to train our players that would never have opportunities like this otherwise.

The training landscape is changing and we don't have anything that other programs are using that optimize their workouts. Other teams are using this program to identify areas of improvement and we are falling behind by not having this type of training.
