My Project

To ensure our student-athletes reach their potential, we urgently need to acquire essential basketball equipment. High-quality basketballs and training gear are vital for enhancing skill development and promoting physical fitness. By providing these resources, we empower our players to achieve their season goals while creating lasting memories throughout their high school experience.

Additionally, investing in an equipment ball bag will help keep our equipment organized and ready for use during practice and on game days.

A speaker system will contribute to a fun and safe environment on game days. It will enable our coaching staff and athletic director to effectively communicate with the audience, enhancing the overall atmosphere of our events. Your support in this initiative will make a significant difference in the lives of our student-athletes.
