My Project

I am requesting a bulk order of badminton equipment. In my department, the two physical education teachers teacher 50 students in each class. Because of this, our equipment doesn’t last very long.

To combat this issue, it is important that was always have our supply closet stocked with new equipment at any given moment.

Badminton is our top activity among all of the classes we teach. Students are constantly asking us to keep up with the demand for more equipment as interest grows each year. It’s important to not turn away students due to limited availability of our equipment.
