Missouri Dawgs

Player Opportunity Fund

DEVELOP. COMPETE. BELONG.

Every athlete deserves the opportunity to learn, grow and belong—regardless of financial circumstances.

The MO Dawgs Opportunity Fund helps reduce financial barriers for local youth athletes by providing confidential assistance with program fees, winter training, uniforms and essential baseball equipment. The fund is supported by community partners, local businesses and individual donors who believe cost should not prevent a young athlete from participating.

FAMILY ASSISTANCE

Families experiencing financial hardship may request partial or full assistance based on demonstrated need and available funding. Requests are reviewed confidentially by designated Missouri Dawgs Baseball Booster Club representatives.

Available assistance may include:

• Full or partial season-fee assistance

• Winter-training assistance

• Monthly payment assistance

• Uniform or equipment assistance

Submitting a request does not guarantee an award. Assistance is provided as an internal credit toward approved program expenses and is not paid directly to families.
