The Long Island Lizards of Major League Lacrosse present the first annual Heroes Day. It will feature the lacrosse teams from the FDNY and NYPD, Nassau and Suffolk PD and Port Authority Police facing up against each other in a battle of the finest and bravest from New York City.
The games will take place on August 13 from 12-5:30 right before the Lizards face off against the Hamilton Nationals. Everyone who purchases a Lizards ticket will have full access to every game.
Games will start at 12 noon with the FDNY and Port Authority facing up against each other, and then Nassau and Suffolk PDs will battle against each other and next up is the FDNY and NYPD matchup. And finally the Lizards will close out the great day.
A section of the parking lot will be closed off for the friends and families of the FDNY and NYPD lacrosse teams as well as all firehouses and police departments. There will be a live band, LIVIN (www.ilovelivin.com; www.facebook.com/livinband).
During halftime of the Lizards game we will present the winner of the Heroes Game with a trophy to honor their hard work and dedication, as well as the MVP of the FDNY v NYPD game.
The Lizards will also be wearing commemorative jerseys that will be auctioned off at the end of the game and be donated as well.
