Hendrick Durham Auto Mall Helps Local Youth Soccer League Score Big

In the spirit of teamwork taught by youth sports, Hendrick Durham Auto Mall is teaming up with MP Sports to provide the players and coaches of the Fall 2011 Durham Youth Soccer League with equipment bags, balls, sport cones, scrimmage vests and t-shirts, a sponsorship check and an opportunity to help them raise funds.


MP Sports will have the opportunity to raise as much as $10,000 through a fundraising opportunity in which a lucky recipient will win his or her choice of a 2011 Chevrolet Equinox or Cruze. Another lucky winner will receive a Home Entertainment Package.



The 2011 Durham Youth Soccer League held a skills clinic last weekemd with Hendrick Durham Auto Mall representatives on hand to lend their support.


Hendrick Durham Auto Mall and other Raleigh-area Chevrolet dealerships are donating these prizes to participating leagues in the area. One-hundred percent of the proceeds collected from the fundraiser go directly to the leagues. The funds may be used in any way the league chooses.


A one-time sponsorship check will be presented by Hendrick Durham Auto Mall to MP Sports.

The Fall 2011 Durham Youth Soccer League also will have an opportunity to raise additional funds for their use as part of a Chevy Youth Soccer Fundraiser. Sponsored leagues across the country will receive 2,000 fundraiser entry tickets each to distribute for a suggested donation, and the league will keep 100 percent of the proceeds raised.


At the end of the fundraiser, there will be four winners of a Chevy Equinox or Chevy Cruze vehicle of choice (up to $24,995 in value). Also, in each participating market, there will be a secondary prize of a home entertainment center valued at $1,000.


Some leagues plan to grant scholarships to families who cannot afford to enroll their children in the league. Others will use the funds to improve fields and equipment.


"We are proud to be able to help the kids in our community by donating equipment and giving them the opportunity to raise much-needed funds for their league," said Paul Ensslin of the Hendrick Durham Auto Mall. "We are excited to be part of the effort this year and anticipate a fun-filled season with MP Sports."
