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

Our school's girls' JV and Varsity volleyball teams are passionate and dedicated, but they currently lack specialized equipment to refine their setting techniques, a crucial skill for competitive play.

To truly elevate their game and foster a deeper understanding of offensive strategies, we are requesting a PowerNet Setting Volleyball Training Net.

This portable and adjustable net will provide our athletes with an invaluable tool for consistent, targeted setting drills, whether indoors during practice or outdoors for additional training. The unique drawstring ball release feature will allow for repetitive, high-volume practice, significantly improving their muscle memory and precision. Investing in this essential piece of equipment will directly contribute to the girls' skill development, confidence on the court, and ultimately, the overall success of both our JV and Varsity programs. Your support will empower our student-athletes to reach their full potential.
