Gatorade is excited to announce the launch of several new products designed to help student athletes and active students power through the upcoming school year. The new lineup includes a variety of hydration, recovery, and energy solutions to meet the diverse needs of young people as they return to their busy schedules.

The back-to-school season marks a return to routines, which for many students means a return to the field, the court, and other extracurricular activities. The developed new products provide student athletes and active students  with the right fuel at the right time—whether they're heading to practice, a study session, or a game.

MORE FUNDS NEEDED FOR HALL OF FAME

The creation and development of such an energetic project plus the maintenance of it has not been without difficulty, particularly in the funding of the undertaking. We have been able to collect some contributions from different sources within our association and from donors in several tennis communities. However, there is still a definite need for more funds to defray the expenses of this entire endeavor. If you are able to contribute any finances individually or as a group, click on the button below.

 

All contributions will be tax-deductible.
