PRESENTED BY
Nature Coast Alliance for Veterans hosts community fundraising events for charities that support veterans. This tournament is our inaugural event — and it will be our marquee event every year.
K9 Partners for Patriots, headquartered right here in Brooksville, matches veterans living with PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and military sexual trauma to rescue dogs — then trains them together for six months, with in-house counseling, at no cost to the veteran. In December 2025, Bay News 9 reported that their long-standing federal service-dog funding was at risk. This tournament is our county's answer.

November 11 is Veterans Day in the United States and Remembrance Day in Canada. Our club is home to many who served under both flags, and this tournament honors every one of them — and the families who served alongside them.
Wear a poppy. Wear your colours. Bring your stories.
