Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We are a high school softball team looking to prepare for this season. We need hitting equipment that will help for a successful season, including batting tees and a new bat.

These girls are committed and ready to excel this season.

We have a lot of work to do and this equipment will prepare us for the season. Hitting is at the top of the list of skills to develop. Our goal is for everyone to get better and improve. We will need to improve our hitting skills. The bat and hitting tees will help up become awesome hitters and improve our team average. Every day is an opportunity for improvement as we trust the process of practice and preparation.
