Baseball Equipment Storage and Carrying Items

My students need baseball storage bags. We have a lot of equipment that needs to be moved from game to game and from practice to practice and we have to carry it all.

My Students

They make the best of what we have and continue to play for the love of the sport. While we have yet to win a game, the boys still push forward and know that we will continue to get better. With new equipment and better facilities, I could help my players become better players and men.

They have a true love of the game and deserve better than what I am able to put them on the field with.

There is great support for the program in school, but a lack of funding. We broke even on a fundraiser selling shirts to purchase t-shirts for the boys to play baseball in this year, but no matter how hard it seems, the boys continue to push forward to get better and grow.

My Project

With these materials to store and move our equipment including baseballs and bats for practice, tees and nets to learn to hit with and not lose baseballs. A lot of our time is taken up with moving equipment. If we are able to move items faster we can spend more time practicing and working towards becoming a better team. Overall, we will be able to become a better baseball team, and share our success with those around us and the community that supports us.

I will be able to get the boys practicing more efficiency.

We will be able to practice with baseballs that are closer to our game balls. It will allow me to change the opportunity the players have, and help them grow in their talents. It will give them an opportunity to grow and showcase their gifts and potential.
