These school kids are jumping
out of their seats.
Why?
There's a big surprise behind that curtain
and they can't wait to see what it is.
(children shouting and clapping)
Especially these kids in the front row.
They're on the Philadelphia Middle School's
very first soccer team.
Trouble is, they don't have uniforms or equipment.
That's where Good Sports stepped in.
CEO Melissa Harper.
What we know is that kids who play do better.
They do better in life, they do better in school,
they do better socially, they make better decisions.
Good Sports got sponsors to donate
$7,000 in brand new soccer gear.
Here we go.
Now for the big surprise.
Three, two, one! (cheering)
The kids go crazy,
especially the coed teammates who rush on stage
to check out their new uniforms.
(Students shouting)
But wait, there's a game to play.
Jaguars!
For the first time, they take the field
in their new team uniforms,
and guess what?
They've won. (cheering)
Principal Meredith Foote cheered from the sidelines.
They're happy, feel good about themselves,
and it's just a huge confidence booster.
Woo!
(triumphant music)
