The Best Baseball Game Day Atmosphere

Help me give my students a professional introduction and game day experience possible through the use of a PA system.

Coach Shackleford Hale County High School

Moundville, AL Grades 9-12

My Project

Baseball is considered the great All-American pastime and our baseball players love it. We want our fans and players to have the best game day experience possible. This is accomplished through a new PA system, which will be used for music between innings, announcing batters, and play-by-play commentary. A heater/air conditioner is perfect for Alabama weather. It will be located in our locker room to keep our players comfortable prior to game time.

Safety is our top priority.

Having the proper player equipment is crucial in preventing player injuries; new helmets and armbands will help keep our players game ready!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
