Tickets given away to local military personnel and their families
To close out NBA Cares Hoops for Troops Week (Nov. 4-12), the Orlando Magic and Harris Corporation have teamed up for the 13th consecutive season to honor military men, women and their families with Seats for Soldiers Night on Veterans Day, Friday, November 11 when the Magic take on the Utah Jazz, tip-off set for 7 p.m.
The event provides game tickets for more than 2,000 active and retired military personnel and their families courtesy of the Magic, Harris Corporation and season ticket holders who donated their seats for the occasion. Seats for Soldiers participating military outfits include Patrick Air Force Base, The Wounded Warrior Project, Orlando Marine affiliate, Orlando Army affiliate, MacDill Air Force Base and Greater Jacksonville Area USO.
Harris is also providing suite seats to military personnel from MacDill Air Force Base.
The Orlando Magic are truly honored to recognize all of the brave men and women who sacrifice so much in service of our great country, said Orlando Magic CEO Alex Martins. Together with Harris Corporation on this Veterans Day we want to thank those in uniform, our veterans, and their families for the sacrifices they make on a daily basis. We want them to know they are our heroes.
In addition, in honor of the annual Seats for Soldiers Night, the Magic will hand out cheer cards to the first 7,500 fans at the door. The team will also host a military-themed Fan Fest presented by FanDuel (located outside on Church St.) including military Humvees, military simulators and a veteran silent drill team performance. Other highlights of the night include volunteer uniformed officers distributing game programs to fans entering the Disney Atrium, the national anthem performed by a military member and a military-themed performance by the Magic Dancers. To close out the night, the Magic, Harris and Levy Restaurants will host a postgame reception for more than 75 preselected active and retired military personnel and their families, with food and beverage courtesy of Levy Restaurants.
In honor of NBA Cares Hoops for Troops Week, the Magic along with player Jeff Green, Magic Community Ambassadors Nick Anderson and Bo Outlaw and military personnel will participate in a Commitment to Service' project on Nov.10. The groups will team up to assemble 200 care packages to be distributed to homeless veterans in the Central Florida area. Through the Department of Defense's Commitment to Service initiative, service members and athletes worked together to serve their communities. The program is built upon the four pillars of community, leadership, transition and health. Hoops for Troops is a year-round initiative led by the NBA, its teams and players in collaboration with the Department of Defense, USO and other military and veteran serving organizations to honor active and retired service men and women and their families leading up to Veterans Day. Throughout the week, the league and its teams worked side-by-side with the military participating in various service projects across the U.S. to support local communities.
