Jr PW Bandits Road Back To Nationals
In 2016, your Port Charlotte Bandits Jr Pee Wee football team were the Peace River Conference Champions, Southeast Region Champions and National Super Bowl Finishers. Here we are again in 2017 your PEACE RIVER CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS! This sets us off on our journey to Regionals with our eyes on Nationals once again. We travel to Orlando for first round Region playoffs on November 4th. If won, we will travel again to Ocala on November 18th. If we win there we will travel again over Thanksgiving back to Orlando for Southeast Region Finals. If we take that game, we will once again travel to Disney's Wide World of Sports for a minimum of 5 days to represent our entire region at Nationals for 2 games. Each regional game costs our team $3,000-$3,500 to travel. Nationals is $10,000 due to the mandatory requirement to stay on Disney grounds for the trip. The team has fundraised, but as you can imagine, raising almost $20,000 in a season is quite a challenge. Our association and conference contribute a small amount, but we have a great need leftover. The money raised goes to travel, lodging, and food for the team. No amount is too small. Even $5 will help greatly. Our players are humbled and grateful to have the opportunity to defend our title. Please help the DEFENDING NATIONAL CHAMPIONS take their title again!!
