Saludos! Somos el equipo de halterofília TeamLaraPR de la Universidad de Puerto Rico, Recinto de Río
Piedras y necesitamos tu ayuda para la restauración de nuestro gimnasio.
Nuestro equipo agrupa a todos los atletas de San Juan en el
deporte de levantamiento de pesas a Nivel Nacional. En las pasadas
competencias de la Liga
Atlética InterUniversitaria (LAI), los integrantes de nuestra
agrupación lograron obtener los premios de campeones y campeonas,
siendo la primera vez en 24 años. Este año hemos ganado sobre 7
torneos. Los dos galardones para los atletas más valiosos en nuestra
disciplina en la LAI de este año fueron otorgados a dos miembros de
nuestro equipo.
Actualmente contamos con 45 atletas que practican todos los
días en un pequeño espacio asignado por el Recinto de Río Piedras de
la Universidad de Puerto Rico. 5 de ellos forman parte de la Selección
Nacional de Levantamiento de Pesas.
Nuestras Instalaciones carecen de facilidades sanitarias,
tampoco contamos con el equipo necesario para el desempeño seguro del
deporte. Nuestras barras están oxidadas, nuestros “Squat Racks” se
hicieron con material rescatado de "junkers" y soldado por
amistades del equipo, los platos de pesas están desgastados o rotos, y
el mantenimiento del espacio lo hacemos por nuestra cuenta. Materiales
que requieren reemplazo frecuente, los costos de inscripción en
torneos, la tiza, "tape", y uniformes del equipo son
costeados con una cuota mensual recaudada de los propios atletas.
La reciente mudanza que hiciéramos del sótano del complejo
deportivo a nuestras nuevas facilidades también lo hicimos por nuestra
cuenta con carretas improvisadas para el traslado de cientos de kilos
en pesas y equipo. Aun así, TeamLaraPR, está muy entusiasmado de
continuar practicando esta disciplina y fomentando a otros jóvenes a
que se integren a nuestra familia y deporte.
Reconociendo su compromiso con la juventud y en especial con el
deporte, respetuosamente le solicitamos su ayuda para que de esta
manera podamos contar con equipo más seguro para nuestro entrenamiento.
No existe cosa tal como una donación pequeña, cada centavo cuenta y
acudimos a ustedes para poder cumplir nuestra misión y responsabilidad
con el deporte.

Goal:
5,000.00 USD
Purpose:
Restoring our gym
Greetings! We are the Olympic Weightlifting TeamLaraPR
of the University of Puerto Rico, Río
Piedras Campus and we need your help to restore our gym.
Our team is formed up by most of San Juan's Olympic
Weightlifting National Level athletes. In past InterUniversity
Atlethic League (LAI), competitions we have obtained
championships in male and female categories, being this the first time
in 24 years. This year we have won 7 tournaments. Members of our team
obtained the two MVP titles of the whole LAI league.
Currently, we have 45 athletes practicing every day in a small
space provided by the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus.
Five of them form part of the National Olympic Weightlifting Team.
Our installations lack the sanitary facilities. We also lack the
necessary equipment to fully fulfill ourselves in the sport. The bars
we use to practice are oxidized; the squat racks are made of recycled
car junker materials welded together by friends of team members. The
bumper plates needs replacement and the maintenance of the gym is done
by our own hands. Materials that require constant replacement,
tournament inscriptions, chalk, tape and team uniforms are paid for by
a monthly fee paid by the athletes.
Our recent transfer from the Sport Complex's basement to our
new facilities was made by us with improvised carts to transfer
thousand of kilos worth of equipment. Through out our struggle,
TeamLaraPR has remained enthused and motivated in the formation of the
team and future athletes who will join our family and the sport.
We are placing our trust in you who is reading this, so that we
can rebuild our home. There is no such thing as a small donation.
Every contribution counts. Please help us out in any way you can!
Thank you for your support.

Varsity Team of the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus
