Me too trying real hard not to joke about it.


But anyways, try out world sporting goods.com

They have sleds for around a 1,000$ and good dummies for about 75$ or 100$. The chutes are kind of expensive but if you need one they are about a 1200$. I'm a coach too man so I feel your pain. I would try a local community college and university to see if they have some old dummies or sleds. I'm sure they do because they update their equipment every 2 or 3 years or so. The colleges will probably be your best shot. Or some upper level high school teams that are expensive. Hope you find some stuff man.

Exactly where I stopped reading. Probably should be edited to remove the distraction.

ETA: Or maybe is a REALLY subtle way to get womenz sent down south for ulterior motives.

It would be really good and you could probably get more help and replies if you bumped this thread in the morning or in the afternoon

good luck

I would contact some high schools in Merica and see if you can ger some lightly used equipment. I know we've donated to schools that have been hit by floods, tornadoes and other things.

Does kickstarter do this kind of thing?

I'd also suggest asking reddit...

Reddit.com/r/nfl

And

Reddit.com/r/cfb

Would be a good start

I think Nike and Riddell and other equipment/uniform companies would try to work with you if you contact them

Can't help you, but knowing the MSB, someone will come along and put you in touch with someone who can.

Good luck

The reddit suggestion is the best one.

I've seen a lot of good causes donated to over there.

It makes the OP seem more authentic. In Spanish i sounds like ee. Is there really enough interest in American Football in Mexico to field a team of 60? What ages, is this high school? Is there a league? I can't give you any equipment, but more details may convince others who can.

I know a place in Tiajuana where you can get great clits for a low price.
