SLV COUGAR Football
Lift-a-Thon
Help us make all the difference.
2ND Annual Cougar Football Lift-a-Thon will be taking place on May 30th from 1:00 to 3:00 in the SLV Weight Room & out on the Black Top!
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
This has been a fundraising event for our High School Football program in the past and it was an incredible way for us to connect with our community here in the San Lorenzo Valley. We wanted to resurrect this fundraising event to show the community how dedicated we are towards achieving greatness once again here in the Valley!
Build it.
This fundraising event will directly contribute towards our athlete’s immediate needs. This includes providing them with the most current, top of the line helmets for safety, brand new pads, busses for away games, new uniforms, workout equipment, and practice equipment. We have a goal for each athlete to raise a minimum of $200, to reach our $15,000 goal. All of the donated funds will go towards funding our 2023 Football program. With our program entirely funded by donations, this is a BIG NIGHT for our program! All donations made towards theCougar Football Lift-a-Thon are 100% tax deductible.
WHAT IS A LIFT-A-THON?
The Lift-A-Thon is a weight lifting competition amongst current High School Football athletes. It consists of 3 main weight lifting events, Barbell Squat 3 rep max, Bench Press 3 rep max, and Trap Bar Deadlift 3 rep max. Each event will be judged and scored according to their individual performance. We will then add all 3 scores to get a grand total score. The grand total score will determine the winner for the 3 events. We will also award athletes who lifted the most for each lift individually as well.
Other ways to donate.
In addition to performing these max tests, the players will be asking for donations from family, friends, dentists, tutors, etc. to support their efforts and their program. Donations can be collected in two ways. One way is through a "per pound donation". A sponsor could choose to give the player (for example) $.10/pound based on his combined lift scores. So if they have a combined lift score of 450 lbs., their sponsor would owe $45.00. The other way to donate is through a flat donation. The sponsor can choose to support the athlete by donating a flat amount ($25, $50, $75, etc.) regardless of max weight lifted. Flat donations can be collected at any time
