Recap: Globe-Miami-San Carlos Strong Benefit Tournament

On Saturday, January 5th, we kicked off 2019 with an amazing event out in San Carlos, AZ. A total of 62 teams competed across three divisions - Advanced, Competitive and Social - to support and raise money for the Globe, Miami and San Carlos communities as they continue to rebuild after the tragedies that affected their communities back in November.  The support was overwhelming and the atmosphere throughout the day was wonderful!

In all, the event raised just under $5,000! WOW! Thank you to everyone who supported the event by playing, purchasing raffle tickets and the many raffle and separate donations. A special thanks to all of the lane sponsors at the event.
