Live United with the Jacks!

Free, family-friendly community tailgate 

Live United with the Jacks is an annual community give-back event put on by NCUW, in conjunction with Head Coach Johnny Cardenas, a long-time partner of the NCUW. The free, family friendly event will be held Saturday, April 20 at the SFA Baseball Field beginning at 12 p.m. There will be free hotdogs, provided by NIBCO, and the SFA Steel Drum Band will entertain fans before they head into the SFA baseball game at 2 p.m. versus Southeastern Louisiana. In addition, NCUW will be raffling off the chance to throw out the first pitch of the game.

In addition to the tailgate event, the SFA Student United Way will have their second annual Kids Fitness Day, also in conjunction with the SFA Baseball team, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Over one hundred children from Solid Foundation and Glory Gang, two NCUW partner agencies, as well as children from Headstart, will be participating in several “field day” activities designed to promote an active lifestyle. There will be sack races, inflatables and a dance station, as well as other games. The kids will then have lunch and be able to attend the SFA Baseball game free of charge.

For more information on the media event, please contact Gary Lee Ashcraft on his cell phone at (936) 552-6408.

General admission tickets to the game are $5, tickets for children ages 9-18 are $3, and admission for children under the age of 8 is free. SFA students get in for free with their student IDs.
