We provide athletic opportunity for the youth of our Westside neighborhood. Youth who attend a West High School feeder school and students who attend West Middle School qualify to participate in programs offered. We are currently offering programming for children in grades 3-8. We work closely with the head or assistant varsity coaches at West High to imple- ment their terminology, team rules, style of play, practice drills, etc. Westside Connection strives to be an inclusive organization, and to offer programing as di- verse as the communities we serve. Today, Westside Connection is able to give interested youth a low cost opportunity to experience the commitment, the challenge, and the fun of a competitive experience in basketball, volley- ball, and football. But WC exists to fulfill a mis- sion for tomorrow. That mission is to someday be able to offer, at little or no cost, something of interest to every youth in the diverse community that we serve: Sioux City’s Westside. WESTSIDE CONNECTION NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT Although coaches and volunteers contrib- ute significantly through their own re- sources, through fund raising, and through countless hours on the courts and fields, ad- ditional funds are needed to realize the dream. Westside Connection hosts several fundraisers in order to raise money to con- tinue to grow as well as support our activi- ties we already have established. We hold car washes, participate in tip nights at local restaurants, host pancake breakfasts, and even cook for a spaghetti dinner/silent auc- tion.
