Former NFL players hit McCormick Ranch Golf Club for fundraiser

This is cool!

It’s getting so big that organizers are hoping it will be a nationally televised event someday.

“That would really be cool,” said O’Brien, who kicked the game-winning field goal for the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl V against the Dallas Cowboys. “If it gets that big, that would be absolutely all you could ask for.”

The Pro Player Classic, now in its ninth year and to be played at McCormick Ranch Golf Club, was created to provide educational scholarships and needed assistance to underprivileged youths.

A portion of the proceeds from this year’s event will support the KidStar radio station and training program at the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Scottsdale, the Make-a-Wish Foundation and the Desert Foothills YMCA.
