Hit-a-Thon?? How does it work?

There is more than one way to do it but the easiest way is to let a player bat 10 times and measure the farthest hit. Pledges are made per foot. Example: Best hit measures 200 feet, pledge from grandma is 25 cents per foot, grandma owes $50.

Got it, thanks!!

During these times of limited budgets for athletic programs, schools must be creative in generating sources of revenue. In order to provide quality sports programs to our students, ----- High school will be holding a hit-a-thon on ----. A hit-a-thon is administered as follows:

- 10 pitches per player by a pitching machine
- Donation Per foot determined by pledger (1 cent x 300 feet = $3 for one ball)
- a one cent per foot donation will amount to somewhere between $20 and $40 donation.
- Minimum 200 feet per hit.
- No hit over 400 ft.
- flat donation will be accepted by all players
- coaches determine distance of balls over fence
- Tax ID # for tax deduction


Upon completion of the hit-a-thon the players will collect the sponsored money. The player will issue a receipt with the coaches signature as well as the players signature. Please make checks payable to---.

All donations will be utilized for ...

Great info, thank you!

My sons team did it a different way. They did 25 pitches with points per hit.

4pts - Hard line drive
3pts - Long lazy fly or hard on ground
2pts - Any other contact
1pt - Just for being there for that pitch

Maximum of 100 pts and minimum of 25 points. You could pledge per point or flat rate. Most people did the flat rate.

Hit-A-Thon

Isn't this where we line up and take exchange verbal blows about the career of Dickie Thon?

Hou-Thon, we have a problem!!

I thought it was Inchon where we had the problem.

In-Thon, we have a problem.

We are doing something simular for football, a liftathon. The four core lifts: bench, squat, jerk press, and power clean. We max out on each, and you donate a cent per pound lifted. E.G. .01 x 1000 lbs = $10

If you collect $200, you get a football team sweatshirt. And we also send thanks letters as well as tax deductability.
