2021 –  7^TH ANNUAL KIDS FOR SPORTS CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT – ANOTHER GREAT SUCCESS!

The 7th Annual Charity Golf Tournament for Kids for Sports was a huge success again this year raising over $20,000 for the kids in the Virgin Valley.  Even during these tough times, the generosity of everyone is amazing.  We want to thank all of you for your support of this event by participating, and we hope it was as much fun for you as it was for all of us.

We were lucky it was another beautiful day for the tournament.  Although it was a little cool to start off, having the sun shining in the morning gave everyone a warm beginning.

We would again like to thank our wonderful Title Sponsors for their generosity:  

WOLF CREEK GOLF CLUB as our Title Event Sponsor

Washington Federal Bank as the Title Lunch Sponsor

Eagles Landing Truck Plaza as the Title Welcome Gift Sponsor

Elaine Hurd as our Face Mask Title Sponsor

Mesquite Magic, 50/50 (Hole #11) with all of your help was able to raise $610 “wow”.  That’s $305 to them for their Team’s needs.

Below are a list of the tournament winners, but the funds raised for this event make the Kids in the community the real winners here.  

Tournament Winners:

Men’s:  Rich Kaul, Ridge Larson, Rob Krieger, and Dennis Schroeder

Mixed:  Mark Yardley, Katie Yardley, Taylor Yardley, and Derek Jensen

DOUBLE MINI A HUGE HIT WITH THE KIDS & THE POWER TUMBLING PROGRAM!

Last May the Kids for Sports Foundation, along with the City of Mesquite sponsored the purchase of a New Double Mini Trampoline.  Since then the Double Mini is being used daily by approximately 100+ kids in the power tumbling program.

Since the purchase of the new Double Mini Trampoline, the city has now confirmed a State Tournament next April in Mesquite with anywhere from 1,500 to 3,000 kids participating.

~ KFS Donates to Help Purchase a Double Mini Trampoline ~

On May 14, 2019 the Kids for Sports was excited to present a check for $4,000 to help purchase a piece of equipment for all the kids in the city at the City Council meeting.   Along with the City of Mesquite the Kids for Sports Foundation is proud to be a sponsor towards the purchase of the very needed new Double Mini Trampoline for the Gymnastics and Tumbling program.  Still keeping with our original mission statement, this is just another way to help the kids in the community be able to play team sports.
