WHO WE ARE
The San Antonio Sports Foundation, founded in 1984, is a non-profit
organization dedicated to creating sports opportunities for our community
and its youth. The objectives of the San Antonio Sports Foundation are
to:
•
Target sports as a growth industry by bringing sporting events with
a positive economic impact to the city of San Antonio.
• Develop fitness programs for San Antonians of all ages, especially
disadvantaged youth.
• Support the development of quality athletic facilities.
WHAT
WE DO
The underlying effect of our work has a positive economic impact on
the city of San Antonio. Since 1991, major athletic events hosted by
the San Antonio Sports Foundation have generated more than $150 million
in economic impact for the city of San Antonio. Many of these events,
including NCAA Final Four championships, also deliver millions of dollars
of national and international media coverage for the city.
Currently,
more than 4,000 children are enrolled in our Dreams
for Youth program, which provides training in six Olympic sports:
volleyball, swimming, diving, fencing, badminton and gymnastics.
The Diamond
Shamrock Go!Kids Challenge™ is the Sports Foundation’s gift
to the children of San Antonio and meets our objective of supporting
the fitness levels of our citizens.
