the-sports-locker-teams-up-with-the-outlet-youth-center-to-bring-free-sports-equipment-to-student-athletes
The Sports Locker was an idea started by Christina Hughes to help student athletes with sports gear, free of charge.
The idea finally came to life last year after Hughes teamed up with Taylor Showley at The Outlet Youth Center to provide a space for student athletes, and Cory Good with The Winning Edge, who helped with many of the donations.
Providing equipment for the second year, Hughes was able to set dates and times at its location in the garage directly northeast of The Outlet Youth Center in Rochester. The first opportunity happened April 5 with another this Saturday, 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.
The location will also be open the last Friday before baseball's opening day on April 26, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
So far, Hughes said about 10 families have utilized The Sports Locker.
For now, Hughes said the items they have available focus mostly on baseball and softball gear. The Sports Locker is, however, open to possibly expanding to other sports in the future.
