Grant Overview
Tennessee's field hockey community faces a significant barrier: limited access to high-quality coaching and training resources. With only 12% of the state's high schools offering field hockey programs, many aspiring players lack opportunities to develop their skills. The foundation's annual grants aim to address this issue by supporting innovative initiatives, such as the development of a mobile app providing training resources and coaching videos. Tennessee's Rural Landscape and Field Hockey: The state's rural areas, including the Cumberland Plateau region, face particular challenges in accessing field hockey programs and coaching expertise. Who Faces Barriers to Field Hockey in Tennessee? Students in rural areas and those attending schools without field hockey programs are disproportionately affected by the lack of access to coaching and training resources. The mobile app initiative aims to address this issue by providing a platform for independent practice and skill development. How Funding Addresses Barriers in Tennessee: By supporting initiatives like the mobile app, the foundation's grants help to level the playing field for Tennessee's field hockey players, regardless of their geographic location or school affiliation. Tennessee's Workforce Composition and Field Hockey: The state's strong education sector provides a foundation for successful field hockey programs, with many schools and universities sponsoring teams and providing facilities. ## Tennessee's Field Hockey Players Need Access to Quality Coaching ## The foundation recognizes that high-quality coaching is essential for player development and program success. By supporting initiatives that provide innovative coaching solutions, the foundation aims to create a more sustainable and competitive field hockey landscape in Tennessee. ## Field Hockey in Tennessee's Urban Centers ## Tennessee's urban centers, including Nashville and Memphis, have a higher concentration of field hockey programs and resources. However, even in these areas, there are opportunities for growth and improvement, particularly in terms of increasing access to coaching and training resources.
