Has anyone ever gotten used equipment donated to their school? I've heard of some schools that have gotten used shoulder pads donated, even used 2-man sleds from local colleges. Have any of you guys gotten used equipment, even weight room equipment, donated? If so, I'd be interested to hear how you went about it.

I know of four schools that got major donations but to get it one had their equipment shed burn down, one had the school burn down, and two had the entire town burnt to a crisp. Not a good deal,

When we started our program up some schools gave us some stuff, hip, thigh, butt, knee pads, they were fine, use them sometimes, got some shoulder pads, we don't hardly use those, we bought all new, a jr high program gave us some champro helmets, about 50, I got those inspected and use the ones that passed, there a good helmet for jr high, but they don't make them anymore, those will be weeded out as they go out of service, if your near a college they may give you some stuff, have to get in good with the staff and adm. I'm sure there are hs programs out there that will get rid of pads and some stuff, but if it is something they can still use not probably going to get rid of it unless they get something new

We bought weight room equipment 10 or so years ago from a college. It was great equipment and we got it at a great price. Anytime I go to a clinic instate I always ask the S&C coach if they plan to get rid of anything coming up.
