CRUSA CARES
On November 13, the U11 Boys CRUSA
teams—the Gunners and the Thunderbolts—
rescheduled their games in order to participate in
the 2010 Autism Cares Foundation’s ―Race for
Resources‖ fundraiser at Tyler State Park in
Richboro, PA. The event was in support of
―Team Tyler‖ named for the autistic brother of
one of the players. The coaches of these two
teams felt it was important to take advantage of
moments like this to teach their kids lessons that
will last a lifetime. The Gunners and Thunderbolts raised $2,800.00. Way to go!!!
THANK YOU COACHES
