This project will put new equipment into the hands of all the children here. We have never had twenty new basketballs for student use. All of basketballs are old, worn out and must be aired up on a daily basis. We have lots of uses for these new balls other than jousting at one end of the gym. I am a firm believer in passing, dribbling and good drill and skill. Earlier this year we had some donations to buy 12 new volleyballs and the kids were so excited to use the new equipment, they took much better care of the balls because they were new and fresh.
