My Students

I am a Varsity Volleyball coach, and I am requesting specific volleyballs for our players to use, both in preparation for and throughout the season.

My female athletes can grow both individually and as a team, if we have the tools for success there's nothing we can't do!

My students love volleyball but many can not afford the basic equipment or training aides to improve. They work hard and have a new found love for the game! My team plays as much volleyball as they can, including many nights over the summer, as well as the winter.

My players also help students at the intermediate school level for service credit. The young ladies like giving back to their communities as well as the intermediate schools they previously attended.

My Project

These volleyballs will help my athletes work on their volleyball skills in order to help get them ready to compete in our competitive after-school programs volleyball team.

Many of my players will benefit having more volleyballs at practices and at home.

Some, if not most of my players like to take a volleyball home to practice with and can not afford the high price for the ball on their own. Molten volleyballs, although the more expensive type of ball, actually last much longer.

I give my players specific drills designed for each player and the players actually love the game of volleyball enough to practice all year.

I hope that the project gets funded because the players really want to be the best they can be!
