Cromeans Foundation donates $7,500 to Jenson‘s Heart of Gold in advance of Super Sluggers Tourney
For the last 11 years, Jensen’s Heart of Gold Foundation has exponentially grown and succeeded in their mission to support local Baldwin County Families that have a child with cancer, affording them the opportunity to make memories with their family. Word of mouth and praise for a well run event has gotten them participation from at least 7 different states in their cornerstone event! The 11th annual Super Slugger Softball Tournament – an adult co-ed – will host 70 teams this year beginning Friday September 10th and will crown a new winner on Sunday September 12th at the Gulf Shores Sportsplex. Having grown from under 20 teams, this event has helped raise over $750,000 in the last 10 years and each year memorializes Jensen’s last childhood act, a backyard baseball game. Registration is full for this event but there is a waitlist and spectators can come enjoy the fun for free! Each team consists of 10-12 players. Each team must have male to female ratio of 5/5, 6/6, 6/4, or 7/5. Teams who register and pay by July 31st will be assigned a team name and jerseys based on a Super Mario Brothers theme – all in honor of our very first Super Slugger, Jensen Byrd. The waitlist will be initiated for any team not paid by the above deadline.
Team entry fee is $350. Not playing ball? Consider volunteering! If interested in volunteering contact us as events@jensensheartofgold.com. For more information or to register visit JensensHeartofGold.com Jensen’s Heart of Gold is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
