Help the Life Track Team get to Nationals
Donation protected
Life Academy of Kipp NJ presents their 1st Track Club Speedsters, which consist of the coach Rilwan Adeniran and 3rd & 4th-grade girls. This is the 1st year that these scholars have participated in the track and field sport on a team and competed against other sports teams in their age group.
It is with amazement that I announce that they’ve won every competition that they’ve attended this year. The group of 6 girls has trained and won races ranging from the 100-meter dash, 200-meter dash, 400-meter dash, 800-meter dash, 1500-meter dash, and the high jump, dominating their competition.
After competing in the States Regions where they’ve ranked 1-4 in the state of New Jersey. They qualified for the Regionals in Pennsylvania under the USATF Region 2 Junior Olympics New Jersey outdoor track and field. Each team member placed in the top 5, qualifying them to go to the National competition all the way in Sacramento, California.
The scholars have worked enormously hard to become tomorrow's leaders. We are asking for your donations to raise money to send the scholars and their parents to Sacramento, California! To attend the USATF National Junior Olympics, where they will compete against other scholars from all over the country.
Our students are kind, silly, and, above all, brilliant. They are from Newark, NJ, and being a Speedster motivates them to work hard on the track as well as in the classroom.
Thank you for your support in making their dream come true!
If we raise more than is needed, the balance will go toward next year’s track and field competitions.
