Managed by Coach Mo, these two sports fields serves the Murphy & Isaac Elementary School districts and neighboring communities.  They are located at , Arthur M. Hamilton School in Southwest/Central Phoenix and at the Jerry Colangelo Boys & Girls Club, accross from Isaac School.  Isaac school is located on 35th Ave & McDowell, west of the Murphy district

The need is great. According to the MESD Governing Board president, 90 percent of the district's 5,000 students come from families living below the federal poverty line.

The Phoenix Rotary 100 Field of Dreams has become a reality thanks to the club's volunteer work and fund-raising, as well as contributions from Arizona Cardinals and NFL Grassroots Program, Arizona Diamondbacks, Arizona Public Service, Phoenix Thunderbirds the AZ Sports and Tourism Authority, The Anquan Boldin Foundation, Tony Womack, Larry Fitzgerald and Coach Mo SportsGroup.

OUR PURPOSE
To improve the skills, promote and improve visibility of our member schools, administrators, coaches, athletes and parents.

To promote excellence in academics and amatuer athletics for youth age 10-19.

To enhance and strengthen participation and competition in our member clubs and schools.

To promote community service, good sportmanship and citizenship.

To foster opportunities for college scholarships.

To promote our core competencies and distinctive capabilities on a shared commitment to three core values -- integrity, service, and excellence in all we do.


We fullfill our purpose by providing instruction and guidance to players and coaches, by providing opportunities for local, regional, national, and international competition and by working with other sports organizations established to benefit amatuer athletics.

Our primary goals are to improve the skills of the player on and off court. Our programs, clinics, and tryouts, are open to all players, regardless of skill level. We are driven to provide athletes, parents and coaches a spiritual outlet through sports and to develop within each athlete, strong values and attitudes.



OUR PHILOSOPHY: PRAY TOGETHER, PLAY TOGETHER AND WIN

Coach Mo SportsGroup is a youth-oriented, charitable organization that is dedicated to expanding the educational and life opportunities of underprivileged children. Since its inception in 2004, the AAU Non Profit Foundation has inspired hundreds of well-deserving students and athletes to strive for a better future. In furtherance of that mission, the organization seeks donations that will provide technology and materials for schools in low-income areas, as well as college scholarships, food, and clothing for children living in poverty.  

Most of you know me and the services provided by the Coach Mo Sportgroup throughout the North, South, & Central Phoenix community.   Our youth sports league now runs up and down 19th Ave from Northern to Baseline providing an affordable opportunity for kids to excel in academics and athletics.

2007 was a successful year for the Sportsgroup, and we are constantly working to expand our efforts to include tackle football, with a deeper commitment to baseball and track. More information on what we are doing and where we are headed could be found at links provided below:
