School Trip to Women's World Cup!
Donation protected
Hi everyone!
For those of you who are unaware, I am teaching grades 5-8 physical education in Norway House, Manitoba. The community of Norway House is a reserve located in northern Manitoba, approximately 800km from Winnipeg.
I am also the coach of our boys and girls indoor soccer teams. The squads consist of 14 students from grades 5-9. We recently competed in the 41st Annual Frontier Games Divisional Championships. This event features other schools of the Frontier School Division. Our boys team placed 3rd overall and the girls won the championship for the first time in school history!
The purpose of this account is to help fund a trip to Winnipeg to watch a game at the FIFA Women's World Cup in mid-June. These young athletes have never seen a high level soccer game, let alone one at the peak of the women's level. They are all promising soccer players and the experience will undoubtedly leave them wanting to keep playing the game and improve their skills.
Not only are they talented soccer players, more importantly, they are good students. They have worked hard in the classroom and during practices and games. I cannot think of another group of young people more deserving.
Due to the timing of the trip late in the academic year, we will not have access to any school funds. All costs associated with the trip will have to be fundraised, and we have several more fundraising activities planned. Any amount will help us so thank you in advance for your generosity. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you!
