The Tiger football team will be hosting a golf tournament June 8 at Cypress Hills Golf Club just outside Marshall. The proceeds from this golf tournament will go toward the program's Summer Service trips to the Ukraine and Turkey this summer.
This is the first year ETBU's football team will be making two summer trips overseas. Two years ago a group of players and coaches spent two weeks in Croatia and last summer were scheduled to spend part of the summer in London. An airport fiasco of course derailed that trip but the Tigers are branching out even more this summer all over the globe.
The trips are costly and the players must raise their own funds. This tournament is an effort to assist in funding all those who have committed to go. The travel expenses have risen considerably since the trips were originally planned and additional money is required.
The Ukraine trip will include a group of seven doing construction work at the Open Doors Christian Camp, a youth camp just outside of Kiev in northern Ukraine. The trip to Turkey includes 10 players with a unique opportunity to conduct a full contact American Football Camp on university campuses in Istanbul.
A flyer and registration form for the golf tournament is available on the football web site here at etbu.edu. For more information regarding this and other Tiger fund-raisers, contact head coach Mark Sartain at 903-923-2187.
