As a coach of high school basketball, nothing could be more essential than having some actual basketballs that bounce! We are in desperate need of some new basketballs. The current ones we have are old, worn out, and different brands and styles. Some balls need to pumped up daily so we can have enough for everyone to use. In addition to my high school players, these balls get used by our youth players too. My high school players volunteer to work with me on Saturday mornings to build positive relationships with the younger students and to encourage healthy lifestyles. Nothing could be more exciting than to see a rack full of brand new basketballs! Our kiddos deserve to have an upgrade and to have some equipment that is up to date. We are looking for at least 10 Spalding TF 1000 Classic basketballs to get us going, but would love more if possible!
