New Jerseys
This has nothing to do with LeBron or the Cleveland Cavaliers, but I would like to blog about the new jerseys my basketball team got this week on Monday. We have not bought new jerseys for like 8 or 9 years. Thats a long time wearing the same old jerseys. Our old jerseys were our school colors red, black, and white. Our home jerseys were white of course, and our away jerseys were black. This year is a change though, our away jerseys are red. That may not be a big deal to you people around the world, but it is big deal to my teammates and I. This is a privilege to us. We raised money for these jerseys, spending our own money for fundraisers so we can make more profit off of what we are selling at our fundraisers. The whole starting five on the team received both home and away jerseys personalized with our names on the back. That was also a big deal to us, because it is such a pride to have your name on a jersey for a team that you actually play for. This is my fifth year on the high school basketball team I joined my eighth grade year. Having my name on the back is such a thrill and joy. The starting five also had thew choice to choose what number they wanted on their jerseys, and I chose number twenty this year because it was one of my uncles number from when he was in high school. This friday, December 7, 2014, we are going to have a game first one of the season and if the team has the grades to play we will wear the new jerseys. Our coach said we can wear these jerseys when ever we want for the ones who received their own customized jerseys once we show them off in a game. They are not all fancy looking jerseys like the NBA's, but they made from good material that includes drifit, and Square net. We ordered these jerseys from Allens Sportswear and we got a deal on them, because it was a big order. I forgot to mention. The people who had their jerseys customized had to pay 128 dollars out of their own pockets. In my opinion, it was worth the money. Here are some photos of the jerseys front to back home and away.

I think the jerseys this year are amazing! The colors look way better and the old jerseys were pretty worn out. The red jerseys are awesome! My favorite color is red. I wish I joined the ball team this year but I already have a lot of work to do on my hands with Future Educators of Alaska and all my homework. I have to stay focused because I want to be Valedictorian this graduation. I know graduation is a little far away from now but I am excited. Overall, yes the jerseys are amazing and the customizations were worth spending your own money for.
ReplyDeleteit is awesome that we were able to raise enough money for the new jersey's i am excited to play in them tonight is is a big game because it is our first appearance in them it feels awesome to have a jersey with our last names on it i never thought i would have a jersey with my last name on it during high school the style of jersey you made is awesome happy we all chose your design.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty cool that we were able to get new jerseys this year. And you guys are pretty lucky that you were able to customize your jerseys. I would have got a customized jersey if I had the money. I think that I might ask coach to order me one next week. I will ask him because I should be getting my retro from work this summer next week.
