Volley Ball Equipment for Female Sports Team

My students need volleyball nets and equipment for next year's season.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. V.'s classroom raised $1,956

This project is fully funded

My Students

The students that I coach competitive district wide volley ball are adorable ladies that come to practice and seem to want to give more every time I greet them after school. I love these young ladies because they are so steadfast to learn everything about a volleyball and are so willing to try new things. The students range from 6th to 8th grade and it is amazing to see the wide range of skills that they exhibit against other teams. It is fun to watch them play volleyball because everything is so new to them and they take it in stride.

My students need volleyball equipment and balls for our female volley ball sports team.

My Project

My female volleyball players need volley ball equipment for our sports team. They are always asking for new volleyballs and nets so that they can enjoy practice and competitive matches against other schools in our league. Having these volleyballs and nets will promote our team and more girls will join the team. A big challenge for my students is to get access to those extra things that make sports better. I know they will enjoy playing volleyball and are looking for more opportunities everyday. This new volleyball equipment will really help my girls play their competitive sport. My team needs this new volleyball equipment desperately, my girls deserve nothing but the best. This is not an after-school club but a real sports team that competes in real matches against other schools.
