accident that changed Dave's life
Today
we give a big shout out to Dave Genchi, who worked with Challenge
Sports and Steamboat Powdercats for many years til 2006.
Some
of you remember Dave who probably took your photo on the soccer fields or on the mountains
of Colorado.
Dave also built many of
the
video’s you may see on YouTube. Today is the 5th anniversary of
his life changing accident.
We built a page for Dave

ABOUT
CHALLENGE TOURNAMENTS
January
2012
______________________________________________________________
Challenge Soccer
Tournaments bring positive experiences and life enriching activities to our
children and help raise funds for non-profit organizations.
Sportsmanship and Fair Play, on the soccer field and in life, is our
first priority.
Challenge Tournaments
are managed by a company called Florida Challenge Sports Events, Inc., more
commonly known as "Challenge Sports". Challenge Sports has
helped non-profit organizations raise money, since the first
Greater Melbourne Holiday Challenge in 1988! Challenge Sports also offers
"tournament consulting" help to soccer clubs.
Since the first
Greater Melbourne
Holiday Challenge in 1988, more than 2,000,000 people (from far
away as Moscow Russia, Brazil, Venezuela and China) have participated in Challenge Tournaments! In
October of 1996, the
Brevard Fall Challenge was introduced over the Columbus Day
weekend. In 1998 the
Palm Bay Spring Challenge
was introduced on the first weekend of May. Later Challenge
Sports added the
Melbourne Area Girls Labor Day Challenge
and the
Boys Labor Day Challenge
in September, and the
Ponte Vedra Storm Winter Challenge
in January. Challenge Sports has
held other Club fundraising full-sided Challenges such as the
Treasure Coast United
Challenge, the Central Florida United Challenge, the
Lakeland Spring
Challenge, and many more. In 2000, 3v3 Challenges
were started! Now there is a 3v3 Challenge TOUR, where teams qualify
for the Challenge
3v3 National Championship held each
summer at
ESPN Wide World of Sports
Complex
at Walt Disney World®
Resort,
Florida.!
Challenge Sports
is active in community and charitable activities. Challenge Sports has
gathered soccer equipment for the children in Bosnia, provided soccer balls
to local needy children, sent soccer balls and shirts to the children of
Chernobyl in the Ukraine, to Honduras, Guatemala, China and other places in need,
including the USA. Challenge Sports has participated in the Sports For
Life Program, promoting a tobacco-free healthy lifestyle for young athletes.
Challenge Sports also shipped boxes of soccer shirts and equipment to soccer
clubs that were devastated by the 2005 Hurricane Katrina. Challenge Sports awards
Challenge Tournaments College Scholarships each year to High School
Seniors!
I hope this gives you an
overall view of our CHALLENGE tournaments and that
you will be able to participate in some way. if your organization is
