Soccer Goals+Gear: SLA+Overbrook
Donation protected
Our school and community need new soccer goals! SLA@Beeber is a magnet public high school and we have a co-op with Overbrook High School to form our team in West Philadelphia. We play at Papa's Playground in Overbook (at 68th and Lansdowne Avenue). In addition, the field and these goals are used by the local community for a variety of soccer programs led by the Village Champions Youth Network.
We cannot continue safely with our current goals:
As you can see, we are in desperate need for proper goals that will be durable and safe for our season next year. We have a great program with both a boys and a girls team.
In addition, we share the field with the awesome members of the The Village of Champions Youth Network:
The Village of Champions Youth Network soccer program has been in operation at the Papa Playground for about 3 years. In those 3 years, we served about 52 youth ranging from ages 5 to 12 in our fall and summer programs. Most of our kids are from the 19151 neighborhood or from the neighboring county. Every fall and summer we use the Papa Playground Soccer field to run our free soccer lessons, soccer club practices and Summer Soccer Camp. The availability of the field allows us the opportunity to introduce and teach youth the fundamentals of soccer. The summer soccer camp offer kids a place to further hone their skills and learn new skills in a fun environment. Most of the kids coming to our program have never played soccer before and the sport has been an introduction to the team concept for many of our kids.
Through the variety of soccer programs at Papa's Playground, we are excited to bring soccer to our students and the entire community who get to enjoy the field.
Below are the goals we would like to purchase. They are currently priced at $1750 each.

Please support us to reach our "goal." We need to pay for the new goals, have the broken goal safely removed from the site, and any money that is left over will go towards additional equipment we need for our teams.
