Wayland Middle School is home to 642 of our children and the gymnasium is used year round for school sports. In addition to school sponsored activities, our Wayland Youth Basketball Association winter programs (K-8 grade), and spring and summer sessions through The Game Is Fair (K-8 grade) also utilize the WMS gym. Having an amazing FOURTEEN hoops, the gym has tremendous potential but is in desperate need of modern replacements (hoops, backboards, support structures, etc) capable of being raised and lowered to accommodate hoopers of all ages! The current hoops are outdated (30+ years old), with non-regulation size backboards, and overall in very poor condition. The total cost to replace all baskets (equipment, support structures, backboards, hoops, installation) is approximately $50,000 ($3500 per basket).

In partnership with Wayland Youth Basketball Association, The Game is Fair, Lynch Landscape & Tree Service, and Extra Space Storage—we have approached the school district about donating this gift of basketball hoops and backboards, including full installation, and the school district was in favor of us moving forward to raise the funds!! We will continue our efforts until the job is done!!

Please join us in our continued efforts to help our kids and improve Wayland's youth athletic facilities. By providing a better environment for our community and schools, our teachers and coaches can spend more time encouraging and promoting teamwork, resiliency, hard work and an overall healthy lifestyle!

Go Wayland!!
