Tampa Bay Storm Get Set For Third Annual Public Safety Memorial Bowl

The Tampa Bay Storm is pleased to announce that the team will play the Tampa Bay Sentinels, a member of the National Public Safety Football League, in its third annual charity flag football game Saturday, January 12 out at Otis M. Andrews Sports Complex (Plant City, FL) at 1:00 PM. All proceeds from the game will benefit the MacDonald Training Center with locations in Tampa and Plant City.
"Whenever you have a chance to entertain and give back to the community, it's a great thing," said vice president of football operations Jeff Gooch. "We are all looking forward to getting out there, playing some football, and having fun with our local heroes."
The Tampa Bay Sentinels is a football team comprised of first responders from the Tampa Bay area, including local members of the military. The team participates in the full contact National Public Safety Football League, a league comprised of teams made up of public safety officers from around the country.
"We are pleased that the Storm and Sentinels will once again play a fun-filled, family friendly, game of football to benefit the MacDonald Training Center and support our community," said Sentinels general manager, Rex Sano. "Please join us to meet your first responders, Storm players and other local athletes for this day of fun and entertainment."
The past two years, the two teams have played a charity football game benefitting the Kocab Curtis Foundations and Fallen Firefighter Survivors Foundation respectively. Regardless of which team came out on top on the field, the charities came out winners with the funds raised and lives touched.
Tickets to the game are only $7.00 and can be purchased at the gate the day of the game. Children under five and people with disabilities get in for free. There will also be auction items and a 50/50 raffle with all the proceeds going to benefit the MacDonald Training Center.
