My Project

My student athletes on the Girl Bowling Team at our high school are coming off a great season. Many of the girls are involved in athletics for the first time. Playing in New York City is difficult, as the price keeps going up and bowling lanes are closing down. The girls on the team always want to practice, but we are only able to practice a few times a season because of travel and cost.

This indoor bowling equipment is perfect for the Girls Bowling Team, so they can play the sport they love all year when they can't make it to the bowling lanes, or can't afford it.

The girls on the team have worked hard to really make the team a family environment. It is a great experience for student athletes that don't play traditional sports. It's great that the girls on the team have something to do after school and form new friendships. This equipment will also allow them to play in the offseason, so they really have an opportunity to improve.

Your donation will uplift the Girls Bowling Team as they look to have another fun season getting to finally play the game they love EVERYDAY!
