XVI.E. Consideration to approve JHS girls soccer program trip to Bettendorf, IA
Agenda Item Type:
Consent Item
Attachments:
Description:

The JHS girls soccer program is requesting permission to attend a college showcase at TBK Sports Complex in Bettendorf, Iowa again this year. Providing these girls an opportunity to perform in front of college coaches could impact their lives for the better for years to come. 

 

The program would like to participate in two out of the three potential days with the intent of staying the night. The dates that we would like to attend are May 1st -2nd. This year the showcase falls on our Prom weekend. To find the soccer/life balance we are leaving Thursday afternoon and returning Friday evening so the girls can also attend Prom.  This would provide the girls with two competitive matches for potential college recruitment. 

 

This experience will be one that every member of the team would benefit from. This showcase will give these girls a chance to bond as teammates, not just through competition, but through activities and social experiences which will boost team morale.
