I’m truly hoping that we will one afternoon be able to get an indoor gym for our university athletics program.
In the meantime, we have had to improvise for gym class and our athletic activitys teams, however football is one thing, but the volleyball and basketball teams would truly appreciate a gym! They have to practice in the hot sun.
They also have to play home games in the sun, however depending on the time of afternoon, rain may also be a problem, however both volleyball and basketball matches have been canceled in the past because of bad weather. The sun may also be in their face when they’re practicing or even playing a game! Most of all, I feel that the athletic activitys teams would benefit from air conditioning. It’s not self-explanatory pushing and exerting yourself as hard as these volleyball and basketball players of ours do. Because our university is smaller, It means that there are less people on our teams compared to other competing universitys. This of course means that they tire faster. At least the air conditioning would be able to cool them down during practice and home games. The university is selling a piece of land we have held onto for a while, waiting for a nice price. This should give us the money we need to build the gym and have a nice cool air conditioning device running for these hard working teenagers! I cannot wait to see the look on their faces when we announced that we will have an air conditioned gym by next year!
