We met with Coach Macky, the leader of a nonprofit organization called steady buckets. He talked about access to youth sports and how his organization is designed for everyone no matter class, race, or sex. Macky went on to talk about the struggles that arose during covid and the struggles in funding organizations. Steady Buckets is an overall wonderful program and learning about how many children it helped only made us more motivated about our topic.

Pascal Duravcevic

Pascal is currently an eighth-grade student at LREI. He is focusing on youth sports and equity because he has had his own fair share of experiences playing sports but more specifically, basketball. Although he has had a fortunate experience with sports, being very privileged, he still understands and still sees what others go through and issues that pop up in society.
