Aloha High School hasn't added a story.
UPDATE Aug 15
THANK YOU for the outpouring of support and getting us to our
goal of $2000 in just SIX days! We appreciate the support more than
you can imagine. Any and all contributions over this amount will go
towards next season which will set us up for success knowing we will
be able to continue fielding more than 2 teams.
________________________
For the last 7 years as the AHS Boys Soccer Head Coach, we have managed to qualify every year for the playoffs. In 2018 we won the Metro League Championship, and in 2022 for the first time in AHS history we managed to win the Metro League championship and we reached the State Semifinals.
The success of our program has led to increased interest, however, our budget has severely limited how many students can participate because we can only field two teams. Most of our participants come from low-income families and cannot afford a practice jersey, let alone the registration fees. This year our goal is to form 4 teams that will participate in the tournament but we need your help to buy the soccer balls, uniforms, players and coaches gear, etc. that are necessary to make this a reality.
My dream and goal are to serve our students as well as possible, help them become productive citizens and have goals for their future, and leave a legacy for future coaches to continue this journey. It is very sad to have to let go of many of the players who try to participate in one of the teams because we want to be able to serve all students. It is also sad and a bit embarrassing to see that coaches and assistant coaches use gear that doesn't match because we don't have the budget to buy the coaches' gear. The district gives us $1000 for the entire program and we prefer to use it for soccer balls, soccer cons, and soccer pennies. Our principal has also generously helped us to cover some costs in the past with events such as dinners when possible but with the soccer season kicking off in two weeks, we need to raise funds immediately to know if we have the money to expand to 4 teams and include as many students who want to participate as possible.
Please help us to equitably serve ALL the students who want to participate. Any amount you can give to the AHS Boys soccer program would be greatly appreciated.
- $20 buys a soccer ball (20 needed)
- $50 purchases a set of flat round markers (2 needed)
- $110 gets a mini goal (2 needed)
- $125 supplies a winter coaches jacket (4 needed)
- $195 is a quarter of the team uniform costs
