Lamar Hunt Pioneer Cup Charity Match
February 27, 2007
We wanted to remind everyone of the opportunity to show your appreciation for Lamar Hunt.
Recognized as one of the greatest sports visionaries in American history, Lamar Hunt pioneered professional soccer in the United States. In honor of the late Lamar Hunt, the operator and investor of both FC Dallas and the Columbus Crew, the two teams will play in the inaugural Lamar Hunt Pioneer Cup, a fundraiser for FC Dallas’ charitable Foundation. Net proceeds from the game will be donated to Dallas SCORES, an inner-city kids program in Dallas.
Dallas SCORES is the only after-school program in the Dallas area that uses soccer, creative writing and community service to build healthy bodies, healthy minds, and healthy communities among at-risk youth.
Dallas SCORES empowers students in urban communities using soccer, writing, creative expression, and service-learning. With teamwork as the unifying value, Dallas SCORES inspires youth to lead healthy lifestyles, be engaged students, and become agents of change in their communities.
Dallas SCORES, an affiliate of the national program America SCORES, serves over 288 youth in the Dallas Independent School District every day after school our kids play soccer and express themselves through poetry.
The match information is as follows:
