UntitledEvent Overview

This fun and competitive mixed gender (3:2/2:3 gender ratio) beach Ultimate tournament attracts Ultimate teams from around the region for a great cause. Tournament proceeds support Hamomi (explore this site to learn more). Bid fees support six scholarship students that this tournament has been sponsoring for over two years. Each team will be matched up with an 8th grade student who will join the scholarship program next year. Teams are encouraged to learn about their lives, write them a letter, and potentially support their pursuit of education and community.

The “Ultimate” Sponsorship

Sponsoring a secondary school scholarship for one year costs $1,000 and provides for a student’s schooling, housing, food, transportation, medical care, counseling, visitations, and school materials for one year. The first year we ran this tournament, Fanya Further successfully raised funding to support two students’ scholarships. In the second and third years, we raised enough to support six incredible students. Not only that, in Fall of 2014, one of the students we support, Caren, was awarded a Glamour Magazine Bravest Girl in the World Award. She was given this award for pursuing her education against all odds.
Each year, Fanya Further grows by drawing together ultimate players to raise funds for these great students. We will continue sponsoring these students’ scholarships to cultivate a sustainable relationship with them as they move forward with their schooling. The more money we raise — the more students we can support! We will be taking donations as well as hosting a raffle during the tournament. You are encouraged to explore this site, learn more about this great cause, and to donate in addition to your registration fee below. Welcome to the Hamomi family!

Dedication

This year Hamomi suffered a great loss. The school’s Director of Operations Musumba Joseck Esau was an integral part of the the Hamomi community, who started his involvement shortly after the school’s inception. For more than 15 years, he rarely missed a day and helped Hamomi become what it is today. For his tireless effort and contribution, we are dedicating the tournament Musumba’s memory.
