Phoenix Rotary 100 Field Of Dreams
Rotary Cup Sports
Managed by Coach Mo, these two sports fields serves the Murphy & Isaac Elementary School districts the boys & girls clubs of the west valley and neighboring communities. They are located at , Arthur M. Hamilton School in Southwest and Central Phoenix and at the Jerry Colangelo Boys & Girls Club, accross from Isaac School. Isaac school is located on 35th Ave & McDowell, west of the Murphy district
The need is great. According to the MESD Governing Board president, 90 percent of the district's 5,000 students come from families living below the federal poverty line.
The Phoenix Rotary 100 Field of Dreams has become a reality thanks to the club's volunteer work and fund-raising, as well as contributions from Arizona Cardinals and NFL Grassroots Program, Arizona Diamondbacks, Arizona Public Service, Phoenix Thunderbirds the AZ Sports and Tourism Authority, The Anquan Boldin Foundation, Tony Womack, Larry Fitzgerald and Coach Mo SportsGroup.
The Phoenix Rotary Club sponsors Cardinals NFL Flag Football League football, basketall, little league baseball, softball, cheer, spriritline and soccer.
Since Coach Mo trains many of the finest in NFL draft prospects and many other pro athletes, our players have had the opportunity to meet & interact with Lofa Tatupu (Seattle Seahawks), Terrel Owens (Bills), Martellus Bennett (Cowboys), Tony Womack, Anquan Boldin (Cardinals) and many others.
