Wingate Soccer helps host 'Score 1 for Spencer' flag football tournament
Date Posted: 5/21/2015
Wingate, NC -- Score 1 for Spencer is an annual flag football tournament fundraiser to benefit Union County kids with severe health issues. Since the original event to benefit Spencer three years ago, it has grown beyond helping one kid from Piedmont to five kids/families this year. Hosted this past weekend, May 17th, the tournament brought in dozens of Union County athletes coming out to support a great cause and play a little flag football in the process.
Wingate University Soccer was lucky enough to be able to play host for the event, utilizing the three fields that are part of the Soccer Complex to host dozens of players for this great cause. Charlotte Soccer Academy played a big role as well, donating a phenomenal gift package to young Coy Shue. The gift package included CSA soccer gear, and a day with the Charlotte Independence which is the local USL soccer team located in here in Charlotte. Coy also received an official match ball of Wingate Soccer.
A big thank you to all who came out and supported the 'Score 1 for Spencer' tournament this year and making it a continued success!
