  • Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good

    Funded Nov 4, 2022

    My student athletes have been beyond excited in having new game pants to wear so far this year. You can see how excited they are to prepare for the games and how excited they are when they do finally dress out for the games. They have received many compliments and have been able to make numerous plays knowing their pants will last through the season. This season, we were able to take pictures earlier than normal and when the players were able to open the pants that were individually packaged and finally put them on, has been a highlight for our early season. There were no forced smiles that picture day.”

  • Pre-Season Preparation

    Funded Sep 1, 2018

    The impact you have had on my student athletes shows every day. From reading, talking and discussing the book, my players have and continue to improve on the all the aspects that we were hoping would when we received these books. What started out as just an idea, became a reality thanks to you.

    As we read as a team, some of my more quite athletes have now begun to open up in when we have a discussion. The book hits on points that have my athletes improving in the classroom and are now improving in their team and leadership skills. It's great how vocal the team team has improved, as they analyzed the characters and scenarios from the reading.

    I look forward to what this season has in store for us, but having prepared mentally will definitely take us a long way. The student athletes are very surprised in how the book has affected their preparation for the season and cannot believe the support they have received.”

    With gratitude,

    Coach Vega
