Schools are given limited funding for sports teams, yet they have extensive financial needs. If corporate sponsorship is taken away from sports teams, they will lack the financial support needed to be successful.]]> 2018-03-14 22:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134392 macy_pniewski https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134393 Corporate sponsorships impose the motives of capitalism on school sports teams. Capitalism is a social makeup that connects economics to private owners, creating funding bias and an increased focus on money. If schools are connected to corporations, the focus becomes more about funding and bureaucracy than student success. Student sports teams should find funding through fundraising efforts, nonprofit organizations, and school allotments and break ties with corporations. ]]> 2018-03-14 22:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134393 macy_pniewski https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134394 School sports teams that are sponsored by corporations receive funding from those corporations. It is necessary for this funding to continue because students will not be able to play sports if it does not. Schools do not care about sports teams so they need corporations to care about them. If corporations need their ads posted around school facilities, that is okay because they are contributing to the success of sports teams.]]> 2018-03-14 22:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134394 macy_pniewski https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134395 Corporations are making a mockery out of school sports. What happened to letting sports teams fend for themselves after they run out of all of their school's funding? Students need to learn personal responsibility. They need to find their own funding for their sports team and stop letting corporations control their resources and their environment. Who needs those ads? All they do is distract from who we should be focusing on: the kids.]]> 2018-03-14 22:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134395 macy_pniewski https://padlet.com/macy_pniewski/qktrah88bxxb/wish/242134396 - Based in opinion
