Sanders was seriously injured in a motocross accident last year that left him paralyzed from the chest down. Proceeds from this event will do to his recovery fund.

This will be a three on three tourney with a maximum of five players per team. Three games are guaranteed.
Registration for each team is $100. Registration is now underway. Each team member must have a parent or guardian sign the participation and release forms to be eligible to play and each player must also present a copy of their school ID or birth certificates on tourney day.
Newton Park’s 1st Annual I Can, I Will Snoccer Tournament will have first and second place winner’s award in each division.
