The tournament will feature boys and girls teams at three age levels - 7/8th grade division, JV division and Varsity division - from throughout Westchester, Putnam and Fairfield counties.
Each team will play four 25-minute games. The format is seven-on-seven for boys and eight-on-eight for girls (rosters capped at 16).
The cost is $500 per team and merchandise and refreshments will be available. During the event at noon, U.S. Army Captain Ben Harrow will speak. Harrow, 32, is a 2005 graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, originally from Great Neck, Long Island. He was a four-year letterman with Army Lacrosse.
Following Infantry Basic School, then Ranger School, Harrow went on to the Special Forces Qualification “Q” Course and earned the coveted Green Beret Special Forces tab. He became a Special Forces Commander for two years.
During his second tour in Afghanistan in May 2012, Harrow was severely wounded after stepping on a mine while leading a foot patrol. It resulted in amputation of both of his legs above the knee and severe damage to his right arm.
Harrow has earned three Bronze Stars and a Purple Heart. He remains positive, relentless and focused on his rehab and his family, and thinks of the men in his unit often. He, his wife Gina and their two-year-old son, Peyton, live in Rockville, Md. while Harrow is undergoing therapy at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda.
