I have heard that a coach from Poteau, OK. surfs the web and can get some kind of support from people "out there" to help pay for their school basketball uniforms. Does anyone here know how that is achieved?

Translation:She heard about a coach that raised funds for his team on the WEB. Can you help her as to how to go about this.

My kids finished their ball season with "that coach." I told them they could play, but if there was anymore problems, to take it up with coach and the super. I figure instead of getting in the middle, I would just see what would happen on it's own. Suprisingly, I didn't hear much from either side.

Translation: "That coach" is a coach that she has had run-ins in the past with over her 4th and 5th graders, he apparently thinks he's coaching in the NBA. At one point she took her 4th grader off of the team. Apparently she relented and let him play.

I have decided, rather, to try to help the kids out by trying to figure out how we can get up-to-date uniforms. Maybe if they had better uniforms, that would give them some confidence? The ones they are wearing now are to small, no shorts, and the numbers are about to fall off. This is a very small public school with limited resources. If anyone know's anything, please drop a line. Thanks...

Translation: Can anybody out here help her on how to raise funds to buy new uniforms for the kids at a small poor school?
