Parkdale Football team holds fundraiser; here’s how to help
The Parkdale Football Program has teamed up with SNAP!RAISE for an opportunity to offer the athletes a more suitable season for the Fall 2022 season. Many of the challenges the program faces are financial issues.
Every football team in PG county is given $3,000 per season, and although that may sound like a lot of money, when factoring in the prices of equipment, the money adds up. With your help, we can build this team up and bring back Parkdale’s football pride.
Where The Money Would Go To
- New Football Uniforms
- New Footballs
- Practice Jerseys
- New Helmets/Helmets decals
- New Shoulderpads
- Game accessories such as socks, compresonshirts, gloves, and mouthguards
- Coaching equipment such as radio headsets
- Camera equipment for game recordings and pictures
