Phillies Kyle Gibson and Zach Eflin to host 'Swinging for Impact' Topgolf charity event on August 21
Ever dreamed of golfing with your favorite Philadelphia Phillies players? Phillies pitchers Kyle Gibson and Zach Eflin are joining their teammates and Big League Impact to raise money for people in need at the newly announced Swinging for Impact fan event at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 21, at Topgolf Mount Laurel. Sign-ups are now available at www.bigleagueimpact.org/philliestopgolf.
This once-in-a-lifetime Topgolf experience will provide participants with a fun evening of competition alongside Eflin and Gibson, as well as their teammates Brad Hand, Bryce Harper, Rhys Hoskins, Corey Knebel, David Robertson, Kyle Schwarber and Matt Vierling. Also in attendance will be manager Rob Thomson, and Phillies ambassador Scott Palmer will emcee the event. (Note: subject to change).
Proceeds from the event will benefit Kisses for Kyle, which supports families in the Delaware Valley whose children are battling cancer. Eflin was inspired to choose this charity after losing his young sister to leukemia. The event will also help support Help One Now’s Ferrier School.
Tickets are $300 per person, or $500 per pair of golfers, and include complimentary food, beer, and wine. The winners will take home a three-month Topgolf Platinum Elite membership for six individuals.
Registration is now open. For more information and to sign up, visit www.bigleagueimpact.org/philliestopgolf.
