 One of our main goals is raising awareness for head and neck cancer. Hopefully by achieve this goal we can increase early detection and treatment of this disease and improve the treatment outcomes for the patients and their families. As a part of this goal we are participating in Oral Head & Neck Cancer Awareness Week. During the tournament we will have physicians available to perform free screenings for Oral Head and Neck Cancer and we will be providing educational materials to the public. This year will be our 8th annual tournament and each year we grow in participation and in screenings provided. Thanks to our sponsors and participants we were able to donate over $100,000 to the Head and Neck Cancer Alliance to date and all of these funds are used directly for patient needs.  Please come participate in the tournament and join us for the free screenings. We look forward to seeing you there.
