This feeding program has been a Godsend especially since we have so many athletes that need a good meal after school to help them make it through evening practices or games. The food service is prompt and the kids enjoy the meals they provide. We look forward to continuing this partnership with all of our athletic programs.
The benefits of the program have been a tremendous blessing to my high school. The community that I serve is in the inner city. We serve 7 projects within our school so the resources are very limited. The program help feed all my athletic teams. My athletes are able to have a meal before practice which helps with their energy level. They are able to focus and remain healthy throughout practice.
I am Coach Simmons, the Head Football coach at Weaver Middle School. Our program has benefited tremendously from the opportunities set forth by the Youth Sports League. Our student athletes have learned countless aspects of becoming champion athletes. They have learned the value of proper nutrition, stretching and pre-post workout routines. This instrumental program has allowed for coaches to sit and break bread (eat) with our athletes and spend time that we may not otherwise have to spend. Our athletes look forward to the wholesome meals provided by the Youth Sports League. I would recommend this program to any school in the Middle Georgia area and the state of Georgia. Hats off to the Youth Sports League for such an innovative and rewarding program.

want to first thank Mr. Kawanis Jones and his Youth Sports League food program. This program has been nothing but a blessing for our athletes at Mundy's Mill High School. Our athletes look forward to the meals that are prepared and served to them daily. Oftentimes our athletes look to go back for seconds if there is any available because the quality of food served and offered are items our athletes enjoy eating. Most of the time there are no leftovers but the athletes look forward to the next meal being offered the next day. The meal sizes are just right for the student/athlete as they prepare to go home and enjoy meals prepared by their parents or loved ones. However, in many situations it might be the last meal of the day for a student leaving or school. So I along with all the other coaches participating in the food program appreciate all that is offered.
I would like to utilize this opportunity to show my admiration for the P.R.E.P. program. This program is designed to provide meals to student athletes throughout the season for each individual sport. Mr. Kawanis Jones approached me with the opportunity at the beginning of this season and it has been a tremendous help! Normally the process to feed players on game days consists of ordering meals from local restaurants, having to find time to pick the meals up, and getting the meals back to the school while having to make sure players stay supervised appropriately. The P.R.E.P. program has taken the frustration out of this process. I am able to continue to supervise my players because the meals are prepared and delivered to our location.
The meals themselves are enjoyed by the athletes. The variety of items offered stemming from hot to cold meals provide an appreciated change on a daily basis. One of the most important parts of the program is that it allows players to be fed beyond game days. It gives nourishment to players after exhausting practices. The players look forward to grabbing these meals after practice, and in some cases this gives them their last meal of the day. Adding milk to the menu daily also is a great asset because this helps build bone structure and muscle mass for players making them better athletes. In conclusion we have been very fortunate to be given the opportunity to work with the P.R.E.P. program this season and I look forward to continuing to build our relationship moving forward.
Greetings, The YSL program has helped not only my basketball team but my school in general. With this program the students look forward to having the snacks provided to them before they go to study hall. A lot of the students don't eat the school lunch because they don't like what they serve to eat. So when school lets out they are extremely hungry and trying to learn at the same time. The students are always asking "I wonder what the meal program gonna bring us today", They start guessing turkey wraps, meatballs, spaghetti, hot dogs, or even nachos. The program alone has encouraged more students to stay after school, just for a meal, and they have improved their grades as well in the process. I appreciate Mr. Jones bringing this program to the school for us.
