BEYOND VOLLEY:IN FEBRUARY 2020, WE OFFICIALLY INTEGRATED BEYOND VOLLEY INTO OUR ORGANIZATION. AS A QUICK BACKGROUND, BEYOND SOCCER AND MERRIMACKVOLLEY CAPITALIZED ON THIS FREED-UP TIME TO LAUNCH BEYOND VOLLEY AS A PROGRAM OF BEYOND SOCCER. OUR ORGANIZATIONS HAVE WORKED TOGETHER FOR FIVE YEARS THROUGH LAWRENCE SPORTS LEADERSHIP ACADEMY (LSLA). BY COMBINING, WE HAVE UNITED OUR FAMILIES AROUND THE BROADER MISSION OF SERVING AND CONNECTING MORE LAWRENCE KIDS TO HEALTHY ACTIVITIES. SEVENTY-FIVE (75) HIGH SCHOOL FEMALES ARE NOW A NEW PART OF OUR YEAR-ROUND SPORT, HEALTH, LEADERSHIP, AND ACADEMIC PROGRAMS.
SUMMER PROGRAMS:WE SPONSORED OUR MOST CONSISTENT AND INFLUENTIAL SUMMER SEASON BETWEEN JULY AND AUGUST 2019, INCLUDING FUNDING 19 FULL AND PART-TIME YOUTH HIRES, INCLUDING BEYOND SOCCER TEENAGERS AND COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO LED AND ORGANIZED 18 ACTIVITIES, CAMPS AND EVENTS, COMMENCING WITH OUR FIRST INNOVATE TO GROW KICKOFF IN THE OUTDOOR PARKING LOT OF OUR NEW LEASED SPACE AT INDUSPAD. THIS MEANT WE ACHIEVED ANOTHER GRANT-TERM GOAL; TO "SUPPORT AND GROW SUMMER AND SCHOOL-YEAR YOUTH JOBS PROGRAMS BY 10%, GIVING KIDS ACCESS TO SCARCE EMPLOYMEBNT OPPORTUNITIES THAT BOOST SELF-CONFIDENCE AND RESPONSIBILITY." MORE THAN 645 HOURS OF PROGRAMS WERE SPONSORED, INCLUDING OUR BEST ATTENDED SOCCER & WELLNESS CAMP HOSTED AT LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL FOR TWO WEEKS.

NOW IN YEAR 5, IT ONCE AGAIN PROVIDED A HIGH-QUALITY CAMP, OTHERWISE UNAVAILABLE OR UNAFFORDABLE TO OUR LOW-INCOME KIDS, THROUGH A VARIETY OF ELITE FITNESS TRAINERS, SPORTS PROFESSIONALS, COLLEGE COACHES, AND MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKERS. AS HIGHLIGHTED ABOVE, 59 PARTNERS, CONTRIBUTING $25,000 OF IN-KIND RESOURCES, MADE THIS EFFORT POSSIBLE, LIKE THE TB12 FOUNDATION BODY COACHES, WHICH ALSO BROUGHT AWESOME MEDIA ATTENTION (CHANNEL 7 NEWS) TO OUR EFFORT, AND OUR FIRST CAREER IN SPORTS PANEL MADE UP OF LEADERS IN SPORTS, NEWS, NONPROFITS, BUSINESS, MARKETING, AND EDUCATION, LIKE BILL BURT OF THE EAGLE-TRIBUNE, WHO SAID HE IS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO "REALLY WANT IT AND TO "BE A PAIN IN THE NECK" WHEN YOU WANT "IT AND LAURIE MILLER VOKE, CEO OF FEMALE FAN NATION, WHO REMINDED LSLA ATHLETES TO "MANAGE YOUR MIND AND "SURROUND YOURSELVES WITH PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN YOU!"

THROUGH THIS PILOT, WE DEMONSTRATED SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH NEED, FUNDING, AND COLLABORATOR INTEREST TO CREATE A MORE PERMANENT INDOOR SPORTS HUB THAT PUTS LAWRENCE YOUTH'S NEEDS AND WELL-BEING FIRST.
