High School Sports Fundraising Made Easy

When thinking about your high school sports program, the last thing you want to focus on is finances. As a coach, your goal is to develop your athletes both on and off the field/court. Unfortunately, budget always finds its way into the picture, and focus switches from the development of student-athletes to the necessary finances needed for their program. There are so many fees that need to be paid for high school sports. It definitely can become a distracting burden for both players and coaches. Organizing a fundraiser is extremely difficult to do, especially on top of coaching and playing a sport. Teams need to find a convenient way to pay for tournament fees, travel fees, equipment, and any other necessary payments to help their team succeed, without becoming a burden to everyone. It is never easy for coaches and parents to put money from their own pockets into teams they are already coaching. Unfortunately, this happens a lot more often than it needs to. Fundraising should not fall on the shoulders of the coach. 

Luckily, at Fundraising University, we can make this process easier and fun for everyone involved. Fundraising U handles the fundraising aspect of high school sports. We want players to play and coaches to coach. By taking control of the fundraising process, we allow players the freedom to set, reach and exceed the goals set for them. We want the process to be successful for you and your team as well as fun and competitive. We make high school sports fundraising fun! We are able to give your team a platform where they can earn their own success and continue to compete. 

The Difficulties of Fundraising and Coaching

Coaches are coaches, not fundraising experts.In a perfect world a coach should be focusing on coaching all the time. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Fundraising sometimes doesn’t let this happen. Coaches often become overworked with making sure their team has enough money to make it through the season. What is even worse is when that financial burden ends up impacting the team. Whether it be with poor equipment, missing out on tournaments, or travel costs. A coach deserves to put their players in the best positions to look and play great. There is no need for a coach to put more on their already full plate. Trying to scrape up the money for your team is a lot of extra stress,is distracting, and could amount to almost nothing for the team. Coaches and athletes should remain coaches and athletes. They shouldn’t have to worry about the finances of playing the sport they love.
