Monetary Awards for Families in Need

CAL Sports Academy is hosting an essay contest to provide several monetary awards to families in need this holiday season.  As of today (12/18 at 4:30p) we went from $350 to $2,450 (thanks to the generosity of our Sponsors, Staff, and Anonymous donors).  The monetary award will now be split amongst a few families that submit an essay explaining how this award will assist you with a situation or hardship during this holiday season time. Submit this essay by following the guidelines listed below and emailing before 12:00pm on Dec. 18th. Your essays will be reviewed, and a winner will be selected by a small panel of individuals determined by CAL Sports Academy (WINNERS WILL BE CONTACTED BEFORE CHRISTMAS).  Address all essays to Mr. Corey Lord, CEO/President of CAL Sports Academy at corey@calsportsacademy.com.
