Tchoukball: Building Teamwork and Fitness, One Bounce at a Time!

Help me give my students a Tchoukball game so I can offer my students physical and educational benefits. It’s a fun and active way to teach children important skills they can carry with them beyond the classroom.

My Project

At RES, we are committed to fostering a well-rounded, physically active environment where students not only develop their athletic skills but also build important life skills like teamwork, communication, and problem-solving.

That’s why I’m asking for your support in bringing the game of Tchoukball into our gymnasium.

This unique, non-contact sport will give our students a fresh, engaging way to be active while promoting teamwork, sportsmanship, and strategic thinking—all in an inclusive, low-impact environment.

By funding this project, you will provide our students with the equipment needed to play Tchoukball, including Tchoukball rebound nets, a set of balls, and other necessary gear. This will allow us to offer students the chance to participate in a sport they may not have experienced before, while learning important physical and social skills in the process.

Your donation will provide RES students with a unique opportunity to experience a game that promotes physical health, collaboration, and critical thinking, all while having fun. It will help students not only improve their physical fitness but also develop life skills they can use far beyond the gymnasium.

Thank you for considering this project and supporting Rowe Elementary in our mission to make physical education both exciting and meaningful for every student. Together, we can help build a brighter, healthier future for these kids—one Tchoukball bounce at a time!
