1. Bearden Football Lift-A-Thon

2. GOAL To install a new weight room floor in the JSAC Weight Room
To raise enough money to get every player a pair of team NIKE tennis shoes and two pairs of matching NIKE socks.
To improve the current state, cleanliness, & functionality of our weight room.

3. WHY?!
Why?: The weight room has a direct correlation with a team’s performance & player safety on the field. Because of this we spend more time in the weight room as a team than anywhere else. Annually we spend about 42 out of 52 weeks in the weight room.
Why?: Maximize space to improve safety and make the weight room more Dynamic.
Why?: To reduce the annual amount budgeted to replacement broken weights, dumbbells, etc. in the weight room
Why?: Weight room replacements cost each year ranges between $3k-$5k
Why?: Uniformity, every player will have matching shirt, shorts, shoes, & socks for practice & workouts. .
