Back-to-School, Back-to-Sports: Join Our Fall Gear Drive!

As the school year kicks off this September, youth sports programs everywhere are gearing up for an exciting season. Soccer fields are filling, basketball courts are buzzing, and football practices are in full swing. But for many teams, the season starts with one big challenge—not enough equipment to go around.

At Sports Gear Reload, we believe every young athlete deserves the chance to step onto the field with confidence, no matter their background. That’s why we’re launching our Fall Sports Gear Drive—a chance for families, teams, and communities to come together and help reload the game for kids who need it most.

How You Can Help

1. Donate Gently Used Equipment: Got old cleats in the closet or last season’s glove collecting dust? Give them new life by donating through Sports Gear Reload.

   
   

2. Support a GamePlan: Visit our website to browse open GamePlans created by non-profits and youth programs. From basketballs to soccer nets, these organizations have listed exactly what they need—and you can help fulfill it.

   
   

3. Host a Community Gear Drive: Schools, sports clubs, and local businesses can play a huge role by organizing collection drives. It’s a great way to bring people together while making a big impact.

Why September Matters

Back-to-school means back-to-sports, and the start of a new season should bring excitement—not stress over missing gear. By joining our Fall Sports Gear Drive, you’re ensuring that more kids can play, grow, and build lifelong skills on the field this season.

Let’s make this September one to remember—for every team, every athlete, and every community.
