Guardian Caps for Edgewood Football
Donation protected
My name is Mychal Doering.
I am a local community member that has spent the last few years of my life trying to use my passion to help the youth in our community, mostly through the vehicle of sports, but not always!
Currently, I run a youth sports program through my church, ZCCN, coach junior high football, coach freshman basketball and I am also the Boys heasd track coach for Edgewood high school! I love competititon and I love watching young athletes compete and better themselves.
I am starting this campaign in hopes to be able to furnish all of our football teams and players (7th grade through 12th grade) with Guardian Caps. Guardian caps provide an extra layer of padding that players slip over their football helmets. The idea is to decrease the amount of sub-concussive blows over time that many football players experience.
The caps can reduce up to 20-33% of g-force blows a player takes to the head. G-force is the force of gravity on a particular extraterrestrial body or the force of acceleration anywhere. If the head receives less impact from a hit, there is less of a chance of concussion or other traumatic brain injury!
We are hoping to raise the money within the next 2 weeks so that we can implement these caps before the end of the season!
With over 100 student-athletes in the program, it is very important to me that we do all we can as coaches, and a community to ptotect them and help them play more safely!
To be able to raise this money would mean a great deal to me! It would that we can provide a safer way to practice and play for our student-athletes that will help them protect one of their most important assets, if not their most important, their brain!
Thank you in advnace for your donation!
