2008
Miami Valley Sports Foundation: As
a non profit charity operating in Southwestern Ohio, our sole
mission is to provide athletic and academic opportunities to the
youth in our target area. Our goal is to provide opportunities
to young women that will outlast their high school years.
As our softball
program is completing its fourteenth year of operation, we are
pleased to introduce to you our 2007 Fall Program that has been
both unique and exciting. While this program is the culmination
of much hard work and expense in its implementation, we feel its
benefits will bestow a truly invaluable opportunity on its
participants.
Our Fall Program
involves the Express playing various college softball teams
within a reasonable drive from Southwest Ohio. All games will be
played on their respective college campuses. This will be our
ninth annual Fall Tour. The Fall Tour has become an
extremely successful program, enabling the MVSF to promote our
players throughout the region. To date, we have had 106 girls
play in college.
