Buddy Bowl Inc. is a 501(c) 3 not-for-profit corporation dedicated to raising money for military, law enforcement, and children's related charities through an annual flag football tournament. The Buddy Bowl includes both challenged and able-bodied athletes on the same field of play. Brackets are divided into Elite, "A", "B", and wheelchair. A number of lives have been touched through contributions made by Buddy Bowl supporters. Funds raised for educational savings bonds have ensured that 10 children of servicmembers who died in recent conflicts will receive college educations and hundreds of injured troops have been given the chance to experience the healing power of sports through grants for adaptive equipment, coaching, and travel expenses. Your support makes a positive impact on the lives of those who protect our freedom. |

"I feel really lucky to be a part of the Buddy Bowl. I certainly never thought I would be playing flag football as an amputee!" Captain Leslie Smith U.S. Army (ret) |
