Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

These tools will help our girls improve their speed, agility and quickness. Volleyball athletes need the ability to move around for up to half a minute or more but also the ability to react and sprint after balls and produce massive amounts of instant jump force vertically and sometimes horizontally to have an advantage over their opponent. Having these tools will help us work on speed training that we need to be successful. We will be able to use these supplies daily to increase their ability to perform on the court. It will also help us create a competitive environment.
