My Project
Sports play a vital role in the development of students, fostering physical fitness, mental resilience, and social skills. Among the many options available, pickleball and golf stand out as sports that uniquely balance accessibility, challenge, and enjoyment. Both offer valuable opportunities for personal growth while catering to a wide range of skill levels and interests.
Pickleball and golf are more than just games; they are platforms for physical, mental, and social development.
Students will utilize the pickleball net and paddles, and golf materials including a putting green, putters, golf net, and more, to learn new skills. By incorporating these sports into their lives, students can build fitness, enhance cognitive and emotional skills, foster relationships, and develop lifelong habits of discipline and perseverance. Whether playing for fun or striving for competitive excellence, pickleball and golf offer unique and lasting benefits that can help students thrive in school and beyond.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
