WWU Track and Field - High Jump

                                            

Would you like a WWU Track & Field t-shirt? Would you like to see your favorite Viking T&F athlete in $150 worth of Nike WWU T&F Team gear? Would you like to see the Western High Jump team with the equipment necessary to take them to the next level? This can all happen with the help of supporters like you when you make a $59 or great donation to the WWU T&F – High Jump Viking Funder!

 

As we approach this season and all it has to offer for our current student-athletes we want you our closest family, friends, and alumni to be just as much a part of it as we are! 

As a coaching staff we are committed to providing your sons, daughters, heroes and legacies with opportunities to train, compete and grow both as athletes and individuals on and off the track. We are also committed to giving the best experience possible to these young men and women but we need your help to do that.

 

We are trying something new this year. In years past, each dollar you have given has been spread out amongst our 120+ student-athlete roster. This has allowed us to finance some of our biggest opportunities as a program, but makes it difficult for people to see a direct impact on the student-athletes or event groups they are most connected with. This year, we are splitting all of our event groups up so that your dollar goes to directly impact the person or event group you care most about! Here is how it works:

 

Each event group has needs. Equipment, travel, gear and even finding funds to pay our stipend coaches. But, why should our High Jump crew raise funds for a new steeple chase barrier? So, we have taken each event group and looked deeper into what tools they need to thrive and what will most enhance their experience.

 

For our High Jumpers, we will be raising funds for

  • Their travel to our Indoor and Outdoor Conference championships.  It’s an incredible and culminating experience at the end of each season, and we want to be able to take anyone who has qualified, which usually ends up costing between $20,000 and $25,000 for the whole team. This means it’s about $274 per High Jump athlete per trip.
  • New training equipment including plyometric boxes and a new High Jump mat ($3,000 total so around $272 per High Jump athlete)
  • Team t-shirts ($14 per athlete)
  • A few miscellaneous items that pop up through the year

In short, we are looking to raise about $585 per High Jumper and $7,020 for the entire High Jump group!

 

In order to accomplish this goal we have asked each athlete to find 10 people to give $59. Can you do that?  In return, we would like to send you a t-shirt*. If you would like a team t-shirt please give us your t-shirt size on the donation page. And if you wish to give more than the $59 minimum in order to have a greater impact on our High Jump team we/they would be incredibly grateful.  Please feel free to write in a larger amount.   Team members who reach their goal will earn a $150 apparel package of Nike WWU T&F Gear, so your $59 contribution can get your favorite High Jumper looking good and representing our program in style!

 

                        

The Win-Win-Win Scenario

What is this Win-Win-Win scenario?

  • You Win because you know that every dollar you give will go directly to the person/event group you want to support AND you’ll get a WWU T&F T-Shirt to proudly show your support!
