Dick's Sporting Goods Shop with a Player

Shop with a Player

presented by:

On Tuesday, September 1, the FC Dallas Foundation and Dick's Sporting Goods hosted Shop with a Player at Dick's Sporting Goods in Frisco, TX at Stonebriar Mall. Over 30 children from the Nelson Children's Center, Frisco Education Foundation, Wesley Rankin Community Center, and Richardson YMCA were provided dinner donated by Jason's Deli as well as a $100 gift card from Dick's Sporting Goods good for any merchandise within the store.

FC Dallas players Brek Shea, Eric Avila, Blake Wagner, and Ray Burse joined the kids for dinner and then took them shopping around the store, pushing overflowing shopping carts and holding clothes the kids had picked out. Children went home with bags full of items, a backpack from FC Dallas with Dick's Sporting Goods and FC Dallas trinkets, and a memory they will cherish for a lifetime.

The FC Dallas Foundation would like to thank Dick's Sporting Goods and Jason's Deli for providing an unforgettable night for our young, Frisco Community friends.
