Bremerton, Wash. – The 2009 defending Northwest Division Champion Kitsap Pumas today announced a groundbreaking fundraiser to benefit youth organizations across the peninsula – and beyond. The main tool is the club’s recently announced Season Ticket for Kids (only $25 for a full-season ticket for 2010). 

The new program works in this manner:

1. The coach or the team coordinator registers with the Pumas front office by October 19, 2009
2. Players and families then sell Pumas season tickets of all types
3. Once a team achieves one hundred percent buy in (all players’ families make a purchase or sale) the coach of that team receives a FREE 2010 Pumas Season Pass
4. The team/organization that sells the most tickets will receive the honor of escorting the Pumas onto the field at the team’s 2010 Opening Night and serve as ball retrievers at that match
5. Also – and most important - each team will receive ten-percent of its gross sales as a donation to use however it wishes
6. The program will run until Nov. 20, 2009

 
“The best thing we can do is expose young players to the game at the highest level possible – and this is a great way to do it,” said Pumas executive director Ben Pecora. “We can now offer a benefit to teams and our area coaches. It’s all truly a supplement to the kids’ development  - and a great deal of fun.”
 
 The Pumas’ youth season ticket is available to children, ages 4-12 – and for only $25. This ticket is good for all home matches during the club’s 2010 pre- and regular-season (playoff and U.S. Open Cup matches are excluded) - a minimum of 11 matches. 

Full season ticket packages for adults and teens are also now on sale and, while supplies last, each purchaser will receive either a discount or an official Kitsap Pumas team scarf. 

For further information, please contact Ben Pecora at 360-377-6008.
