My Project

Our middle school adopted soccer last year and we have completed one season soccer. Last year we had to share soccer balls between our players, we only had one soccer ball for every two players. While we made this work, it would be nice to be able to have more balls available for our players.

Please consider donating to our project to help give our players more opportunities to get touches on the ball.

Having a ball for every player on our team is the goal and having 10 more soccer balls would help get us closer to this goal. Thank you so much for taking the time to check out our project; any donation would be greatly appreciated.
