Equipment Purchases

The Judges Athletic Association provides financial support to the high school and student athletes for items "above and beyond" or unique" determined to be outside of budgeted cost of the athletic program.  The Director of Student Activities (DSA) submits a "Wish List" to the JAA which details budget subsequent requests from coaches.
