Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I am the head coach of the Varsity Football team. We have a Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Freshman team. Last season, our Varsity Mustangs went 6 and 4 in the Liberty Red League, Division 1 North 5. We would like to have a better 2017 season.

Our team is as diverse as our school population, with many members who are immigrants or first generation citizens; our students speak a variety of languages at home and many are of Hispanic or Middle Eastern descent.

The team meets every day during the fall season and does conditioning and strength training in the winter, spring, and summer months. Many of my varsity squad are two or three season athletes. My students must maintain a high gpa and stay in good standing with attendance and discipline.

My Project

In order to build the bodies and spirits of the members of my team, we need strength and conditioning equipment such as weight belts. The team uses these items 365 days a year to build up their resistance and to strengthen their hearts and bodies. Every member of the football team will be using this equipment. The football squad does strength and conditioning every single day and they desperately need these belts.

The advantage to using these belts: increase IntraAbdominal Pressure [IAP] to maintain a solid core, reduces lower back strain and the likelihood of injury, reminds the player to lift with proper form, and allows the player to lift more weight.

Thank you for supporting the Mustang Football Squad and for helping to keep our players strong and safe.
