While we are proud of these accomplishments, the demands of running a nationally competitive NAIA basketball program have grown alongside our success. To continue elevating the program and providing the best possible experience for our student-athletes, we are seeking your support in addressing several key needs for the 2024 season, including:
- Locker room renovations, specifically termite repairs. Our goal for this portion of the project is $60,000 to replace lockers and conduct other necessary repairs.
- Contribute to the donation of 17 lockers at $1,500 each. A nameplate honoring each donor will be permanently attached to their sponsored locker.
- New jerseys to represent Nelson with pride
- Jersey Sponsorship: $3,000 for a company logo patch on either our Home White or Away Purple jerseys for the entire season
- Upgraded training equipment to ensure our athletes can train at the highest level
- Enhance travel accommodations for away games, allowing our team to stay focused and prepared
- Technology upgrades, including video analysis software to break down game footage and improve performance.
- Smart Board video screen for the locker room, ideal for film breakdown and other team activities.
Your partnership and support will directly impact the success of our athletes both on and off the court, helping us maintain our tradition of excellence and continue competing at the highest level.
