NFL Alumni Association Insures Charity Pro-am With Vortex Weather Insurance
Vortex Insurance, an insurtech leader in parametric weather insurance announced today a partnership with the NFL Alumni Association to provide weather insurance for the NFL Alumni Draft Pro-Am golf tournament to be held on April 27, 2023, at The National Golf Club of Kansas City. The annual event, which is held in tandem with the NFL Draft, is one of the NFL Alumni’s largest annual fundraisers with charitable funds going to support NFL Player Care Foundation.
“The money raised at the NFL Alumni Draft Pro-Am in Kansas City for the NFL Player Care Foundation and other NFL Alumni local charities is so important,” said Rick Summers, CEO of PGA Magazine and EPB Golf LLC. “And because we cannot change the date of the event, insuring against adverse weather at an affordable price is a decision that was easy to make. We are excited to partner with Vortex Weather Insurance once again to have a rain insurance policy tailored to our needs. Vortex has been a great partner.”
With headquarters in Overland Park, KS, just 15 minutes south of Kansas City, Vortex Insurance is proud to partner with the NFL during a time when the eyes of the sports world will be fixated on their local community.
Held annually in conjunction with the NFL Draft, the NFL Alumni Draft Pro-Am gives golfers a chance to play golf, meet and mingle with well-known NFL Alumni, including a 2023 field that includes Bobby Bell, Jonathan Ogden, Bart Oates, Santonio Holmes, Will Shields, and Brad Edwards who are all scheduled to attend. In addition to golf, participants are treated to “chalk talk” with NFL alumni after golf as well as a NFL Draft Watch Party.
“Kansas City will be the center of the sports world during the NFL Draft, which happens to be our hometown,” said Eric Anderson. “We are delighted to welcome and partner with the NFL Alumni Association in support of their NFL Alumni Charity Pro-Am. Our insurtech is built to help ensure that their golf event raises the necessary funds for NFL Care Foundation in a simple and hassle-free manner.”
