My Project

My school is a low income school with very little PE equipment. In an effort to give low income students the best possible PE experience these items are needed. I am running a sports program as well and have personally bought footballs, basketballs, volleyballs and soccer balls myself.

I am looking forward to teaching students new sports like pickelball, but will need paddles to do so.

I also look forward to doing baseball with tennis balls and jump roping. These items are essential to running a good PE program which these kids have never had.
