Good afternoon!  Please see the  message from Tampa Bay Sun Foundation!



The Pros & Pals event is returning on July 26!  Pros & Pals is a completely
free soccer clinic for youth ages 5–15 who are neurodivergent and/or have
physical disabilities such as limb differences, autoimmune disorders, or
anything that would make an event such as Pros & Pals more tailored to
them! The event is designed to provide a fun, supportive, and inclusive
environment where every child can experience the joy of soccer while being
paired with a volunteer buddy throughout the clinic.

The event will take place on July 26, this time indoors! We are once again
looking for families with children that would like to participate and
volunteers to serve as buddies, assist with activities, and help create an
unforgettable experience. No soccer experience is necessary, just a
willingness to encourage and have fun!

If you're able, we would greatly appreciate you sharing this opportunity
with anyone who may be interested in volunteering or with families who have
children that would enjoy participating. Every connection helps us reach
more youth and continue growing this incredible program.

I've cc'd Callie Lupica, our Community Impact Manager, and we'd be happy to
answer any questions or provide additional information. I have attached
both the flyer for volunteers and the flyer for participants and we would
greatly appreciate you sharing the flyer with your network once again!

Thank you again for your continued support of the Tampa Bay Sun Foundation.
We truly appreciate everything you do and hope you'll help us make this
Pros & Pals another amazing success!

Best,
