My Project

Having the right equipment is crucial for a safe and entertaining experience on the baseball field. The equipment requested will ensure safety, enjoyment, and optimal performance for our students.

The Premium Portable Batting Practice/Hitting Swing Trainer System will ensure our students will learn the fundamentals of hitting a ball.

As a coach, promoting our students to be involved in sports extends far beyond the baseball field. Students first learn collaboration and teamwork, which is important to the integrity and overall appreciation of the game. They also learn discipline, ethical behavior or sportsmanship, commitment, and also dealing with setbacks.

Baseball is a beautiful sport and perhaps one of America's favorites. My goals are to show how fun playing the game can be and how the game strengthens adaptable skills by playing and interacting with others. Our students are diverse and eager to learn new things. Help me keep our students committed to team sports, development, and having fun.
