Joseph and teammate Colin delivered this season's collection to the Louisville Broncos of the Louisville Metro Youth Football League. The Broncos are a 1st year team and are led by Coach McAdory. Coach "Mac" was proud to announce that this year's team made it all the way to the Semi-Finals. Joseph and Colin shared the Sports Leader virtues of Charity, Humility and Determination. Coach "Mac" expressed his extreme gratitude and promised the equipment would go to good use and that it will help to include some who may not be able to participate otherwise.
5TH DOWN EQUIPMENT LOCKER
5TH Down Equipment Locker is a
program to provide used equipment for football players of need. It is called 5th down because like a 5th down on the football field it gives us all another opportunity.
In giving, we practice generosity. Not everyone has been
blessed the way we have. We also display leadership by setting an example for others. When others witness the joy we receive in giving, it will inspire them to do the same.
The person getting the equipment gets the opportunity to
play football and experience the fellowship and camaraderie that we all know it brings.
Here is how it works:
We will collect your used equipment (equipment you own). Please clean any equipment before you bring it in. We need anything you can spare: cleats, pads, pants practice jerseys, gloves, helmets, etc… you get the idea. Once we have the equipment gathered we will get representatives of our team to deliver them.
Please give freely. There are plenty of kids in our community that can’t play because of the cost of
equipment. Let’s share the opportunity of playing football with them and make a difference in someone’s life.
