The Slayer Showdown continues to give back. ❤️

A few weeks ago, we shared the incredible amount our 2026 Slayer Showdown community helped raise and the donation we were able to make to Make-A-Wish Wisconsin.

Today, we’re excited to share the next part of that story. 🥹

We were honored to present a $12,500 donation to the Miracle League — another organization doing incredible work to make a difference for kids and families in our community.

This is exactly why we do what we do. What started as a baseball tournament turns into something so much bigger when teams, families, sponsors, volunteers and our community come together. ⚾️❤️

$12,500 for the Miracle League.
$7,500 for Make-A-Wish Wisconsin, Blake got his wish.
One incredible baseball community making an impact.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the 2026 Slayer Showdown possible. We truly couldn’t do this without you.

Play hard. Give back. ❤️⚾️

This is what it’s all about. 🥹

We are SO incredibly proud to share that Drive to Thrive Sports was able to present Make-A-Wish Wisconsin with a $7,500 donation toward Blake’s Wish! 🙏🏼✨

What started as a weekend of baseball turned into something so much bigger. Because of the amazing teams, families, sponsors, volunteers, and everyone who came out and supported the 2026 Slayer Showdown, we were able to give back in a BIG way.

We truly cannot thank you all enough for giving so much back while also having an incredible weekend of baseball. ❤️

This is why we do it.
To bring people together.
To play hard.
To give back.
And to make a difference in the lives of kids and families who deserve a little extra magic. ✨

Blake’s Wish is officially one step closer because of YOU. 💙

And we’re not done yet…

⚾️ Stay tuned for our Miracle League presentation! ⚾️

Thank you for believing in what we’re building with Drive to Thrive Sports and for showing us just how incredible the baseball community can be when we all come together.
