24-Hour Lacrosse Game Benefits Wounded Warriors

Twenty-four hours is a long time to play lacrosse.

For a single game, it will be a record and one that benefits wounded warriors.

The Shootout for Soldiers, which will feature hundreds of players during the game, will be divided up into 1-hour sections.

Each player suits up for either the Stars or the Stripes.

"There's a whole range of people playing, including D-I All Americans, MLL [Major League Lacrosse] players, professional athletes from other sports," says founder Tyler Steinhardt.

"People signed up who are 10-year-olds and people signed up who are 65 years old," Steinhardt says.

Support Wounded Warrior Businesses. I'm commenting on behalf of wounded warriors in an effort to help promote and support service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. Many wounded warriors are coming home, getting out of the military and jobs are very limited. Therefore many have decided to start their own businesses in an attempt to survive and support their families. In an effort to help, we have created the Wounded Warrior Directory, the one and only directory dedicated solely to supporting service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses at http://www.VeteransDirectory.com. Great place to find teaming partners or hire a veteran sub contractor. Please help us let others know about these businesses and this cause. Thank you!
