Membership Drive

 

We are excited to kick off the 2013 Ponies Touchdown Club Membership Drive! The Ponies Touchdown Club is a 501c)(3) nonprofit organization intended to support the Stillwater football program. The PTC is just one year old but we have done many things in that short time.

Following are a list of things we have already accomplished:

- Purchased new Riddell Revo Speed and 360 concussion reduction technology helmets for all 10-12 grade football players

- Arranged an agreement with Adidas for low cost cleats and apparel for our football players and family members

- Replaced varsity uniforms with new state of the art Adidas Techfit uniforms. The existing uniforms were then passed down to our sophomore team.

- Purchased The Hudl web based software so game film could be shared with other teams, colleges and most importantly, our players.

- Funded additional coaches at all levels of the program.

- Created www.poniesfootball.com website to share past and present Stillwater football as well as provide up-to-date information to our current players, families and fans. We were also able to create and maintain a facebook page, You Tube channel, Twitter account, and Scoop It news feed.

- Purchased footballs, decals, and miscellaneous related equipment.

- Purchased coaching resources and clinics.

- Created the $1,000.00 Ponies Touchdown Club scholarship to be given annually to a senior football player.

- Created the Ponies Game Day Program featuring our players, program, tradition and supporters.

- Improved the look of Ponies Stadium with windscreens on the majority of chain link fences creating a better atmosphere for our fall sports programs.

- Reconditioned all 10-12 grade shoulder pads after the 2012 season.

- Created gatherings after each home game to build community within parents, coaches and supporters.

 

We’re not done yet though. Our short term goals for year two are as follows:

- Build an equipment garage with electricity on our practice fields to allow for better use of our resources.

- Complete our goal of purchasing helmets for our 10-12 players.

- Purchase enough new shoulder pads so all our players are in pads that are under ten years old.

- Add coaches at all levels with a particular focus on 9th grade. We believe reducing the player to coach ratio can have a huge impact on our young men.

 

Our long range goals remain as well:

- Assist the school district and community in making larger impact improvements to Ponies Stadium including permanent ticket booths, restrooms, concession stands and turf for our playing field in the near future.

- Improve our weight room to today’s 5A and 6A school standard. We currently lag behind these schools and it is time to improve.
