Have any of you ever applied for and received a grant for equipment? We do not have an endzone camera and due to the “liability” issues we cannot have anyone standing on scaffolding filming from the endzone. I am thinking about applying to the NFL for an equipment grant to get one of the telescoping endzone cameras. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

USA Football does equipment grants every year. Very easy to apply for. I think we've gotten two sets of helmets from them, and one set of shoulder pads, for three years in a row. www.usafootball.com |

coachplaa,
Do you have tricks to the trade when writing a grant? Is there any particular information that should be included in the request?

I think the USA Football grant is very easy. It prompts you with questions, and you have to do some typed responses. When you are all done, there are 10-12 packages you can choose from.
