Music and TV superstar Snoop Dogg has
announced that the 6th annual Snoop Bowl will be
taking place on February 2, 2008. The annual
game, hosted by Snoop Dogg himself, will donate a
portion of the proceeds to the Matt Leinart
Foundation (www.mattleinartfoundation.org). The game will be held at Hamilton High
School in Chandler, AZ.
Snoop Bowl VI will feature the Snoop Dogg All-
Stars, a youth football team from California
coached by Snoop Dogg, against local Arizona
youth football players. The game will be held
the day before Super Bowl XXII, and is expected
to draw many fans. Matt Leinart, Heisman Trophy
Winner and Arizona Cardinals Quarterback, will be
in attendance, representing his charitable
foundation. The Hamilton High School band will
be performing at halftime.
“For five years now we have had a great time
organizing and preparing for the Snoop Bowl. It
gives the kids a reason to work and play hard
throughout the season, knowing that it all
culminates on this day,” says Snoop Dogg. “It is
about so much more than the game, the Snoop Youth
Football League gives kids hope and meaning
outside of just the sport.”
The Snoop Dogg All-Stars are made up of kids
who participate in the Snoop Youth Football
League, a football league funded by Snoop Dogg
and comprised of over 3,000 kids in the Greater
Los Angeles area. Snoop Dogg founded the league
in 2005 in order to provide at-risk youth an
affordable way to play football. Kids who
participate must maintain strict academic
requirements to remain eligible. Coach Snoop
even provides insurance to each participant free
of cost.
