KICKBALL IS BACK! UNT Cheer Team Fundraiser for 2022

[KRAM2]

OK...after a two year break due to COVID...we are back for 2022!  We will once again be working to help provide scholarship money to the UNT Cheer Team.

This year's event will take place on Saturday, MARCH 26th at the UNT SOFTBALL COMPLEX.  Yes, the newly renovated UNT Softball Complex.  Registration and t-shirt distribution will begin at 10:00am with the first "roll" by none other than the great SCRAPPY, at approximately 11:00am.

Registration is still only $35.00 per player and all proceeds go to the UNT Cheer team account.  There will be a silent auction with lots of great stuff including UNT items you are sure to want. There will also be a tailgate with food available for a donation to the Cheer program provided by the UNT Cheer parents and a 50/50 raffle drawing.

We hope to have an alternative site announced soon in case of poor weather on the 26th.  Also, we hope to have a registration/donations link up soon.  When that is available, I will post it here for all to use should they wish.

So, at this point what do we need?

1. Players....will Thor be the first to sign up once again?  It is tradition, you know?

2.  Silent Auction Donations - Let me know if you have something you would like to donate to the auction

3.  Sponsorships - if you or your business would like to help sponsor this event please let me know and we can work out the details/amounts, etc.

5.  Donations - if you cannot play and cannot attend and would like to help these student-athletes, donations of any amount are appreciated and welcomed.

6.  Attendees! We need folks to simply show up and support this event and perhaps bid on a silent auction item or two.

OK...more to come in the next few days, but for now check out the "needs" list and get the 26th down on your calendars...it is going to be FUN!

 

EDIT/NEW INFORMATION:  Back-Up Bad Weather Plan:   In case weather prevents us from utilizing the Lovelace Softball Complex, we have secured the use of the UNT INDOOR PRACTICE FACILKITY as our back-up location.  Only difference would be a 2:00pm registration time and 3:00pm Kick-off time.  Obviously had to work around Spring Football practice times.

EDIT II: NEW INFORMATION:  We now have our sign-up links and donations links available:

TO PLAY:  https://one.unt.edu/annual-spirit-classic

TO DONATE:  https://one.unt.edu/annual-spirit-classic-donation-page

Glad to hear...just send me a PM here with your t-shirt size and name and I will add you to the player list.  It really is that simple.  When we get the link up you can register there and pay the entry fee or you can pay when you get to the softball field day of game.  Appreciate you and your support.

Back-Up Foul Weather Plan Now in Place!

 

In case of foul weather that keeps us from utilizing the UNT Softball Field for our Kick-0Ball and Silent Auction event...we have obtained the use of UNT's INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY.  If a wet field or other foul weather p0revents us from our use of the softball field beginning with registration at 10:00 am, we will move the event to the INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY with a 2:00pm registration time and 3:00pm kick-off.  Remember...this is a back-up plane in case of bad weather only.  WE still plan of playing on the Lovelace Softball Field beginning with a 10:00am registration and 11:00am kick-off.

 

Really appreciate the Athletic Department working with me on this so we do not have to cancel the event due to poor weather.

It's a plane, not a plan.  Or vice versa.

One game.  And, it is MARCH 26th...not Feb 26th.  Don't think we are playing BB at the Super Pit on March 26th.  Wpould love to see you come out and play. It's for a great cause.
