Local Nonprofit Holding Major Fundraising Drive to Help Protect and Save Local Youth From Sudden Cardiac Arrest
Written by LV Sportz Foundation
.:: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ::.
Friday August 16th, 2019 - The LV Sportz Foundation, a Southern Nevada 501c3 Nonprofit Charity with a primary focus on keeping Southern Nevada Youth safe while participating in sports, Needs Your Help to Continue and Expand Their Game-Saver Program So They Can Continue to Protect & Save Southern Nevada Youth Athletes from Sudden Cardiac Arrest!
The goal of their Game-Saver Program and related events are to help prevent tragedy from striking our local youth who participate in sports. Tragic events like Sudden Cardiac Arrest/Death, Second Impact Syndrome/CTE, and Heat Stroke are just a few of the real threats to youth who are active in all types of sports and Southern Nevada is no stranger to these tragedies as evident by several cases of each in the past. Nationally, over 300 young athletes die every year nationally from Sudden Cardiac Death alone.
There have been over a dozen publicized and non-publicized incidents of local student athletes collapsing on local playing fields in the past with a few of those resulting in hospitalization or death.
The Foundation’s Game-Saver Program is designed to help combat this issue. The program features:
- Free Youth Sports Physicals with Heart Screenings that feature in-depth physical exams, personal/family history, 12-lead EKG and a 2D Limited Echocardiogram. Two to Three times a year.
- Free to Low-cost C.P.R./A.E.D./First Aid Certifications for Coaches and Team Moms
- Free Student-Athlete/Parent Hands-Only C.P.R. and A.E.D. Awareness & Familiarization with Sports Injury Awareness and Prevention Information
- Free A.E.D. Loaner’s for Youth Sports Organizations (When Available)
- Financial Assistance for Seriously Injured Athletes
- And More!
To help the program continue to be successful and grow they need funds to replace aging screening equipment like EKG machines, Cardiac Ultrasound machines, portable exam tables, and other screening essentials. That equipment can be expensive, real expensive… an EKG machine can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $10,000 and a portable Echo machine can cost as much as $10,000 to $20,000.
They have had to also pause the C.P.R. and A.E.D. segment of the program a couple years ago when their main volunteer instructor had to move out-of-town for his career, which also meant their access to the equipment they need like dummies and A.E.D. Trainers was no longer there.
“It’s been hard, real hard to continue these programs but we are staying steadfast in our passion to keep these all important programs going to help protect and save area youth from avoidable tragedy,” said Brian Bartolome, Executive Director and Founder of the LV Sportz Foundation.
They have recently launched an ambitious raffle based fundraising drive that is going on now through the last day of August that includes some awesome donations from local organizations that have been combined into packs for an amazing value. Packs include an Adventure Pack, Date Night Pack, Family Pack, Self-Protection Pack and More.
Sponsors of the drive so far include Sunbuggy, Apocalypse Vegas, David Saxe Productions, Code Ninjas (Centennial Hills), the Hakkasan Group, FlightLinez, Seaquest, Eclipse Theater, Las Vegas Mini Gran Prix, Flip N Out Xtreme, Accentrick Tint, Hollywood Cars Museum, Springs Preserve, Royal Links Golf Club, Refuge Climbing Center, Rex Center, 3 Dot Sight Group, and the Gun School.
Even a couple of the local professional sports teams have stepped in: the Las Vegas Lights FC have provided a gift basket that includes ticket vouchers, a t-shirt and other knick-knacks. The soon to be Las Vegas Raiders have donated some small gift pack that includes a T-shirt, stickers, keychain, etc...
The foundation has also partnered with several of the local youth sports leagues to raffle off registrations. Leagues include the Nevada Youth Football League (NYFL), i9 Sports, National Youth Sports (NYS), South Vegas Girls Softball, Vegas Flag and Girls Youth Basketball.
“What’s unique about our partnership with the local leagues is that in turn for their participation, fifty-percent of monies raised from our Adventure Pack, which is our largest pack in terms of value, will in turn be distributed to our No Youth Athlete Left Behind Registration Assistance program and then distributed evenly among the participating leagues,'' said Bartolome.
He continued, “The participating leagues have agreed that funds received from the Foundation’s No Youth Athlete Left Behind Program will only be used to pay for the registration fee(s) of a child(ren) whose family may not be able to pay the registration fee due to current financial circumstances, it’s really a win-win for everyone involved.”
Even though the drive has already launched they have plans to continue to add to the list of available items should new partners become available.

LV Sportz Foundation Holding Game-Saver Event Featuring Free Sports Physicals, Youth Athlete Heart Screens & CPR-AED Certifications July 25th, 2015
Written by LV Sportz FoundationNearly one youth athlete under the age of 18 in the United States will die every 3 to 4 days from a heart related condition. An overwhelming cause of these deaths includes Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) which involves the thickening of the heart muscle, forcing the heart to work harder to pump blood. Other cardiac issues such as Long QT Syndrome and Wolff-Parkinson-White disease also put student-athletes at risk.
Most of these disorders can go unrecognized even though most causes of Sudden Cardiac Arrest in youth athletes can be found and treated before its too late. Thorough, in-depth, screenings and worst-case-scenario preparedness, can mean our local youth do not have to fit into that statistic.
The problem is that some of these advance screenings that are able catch these issues can cost hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars! Luckily a local non-profit organization is looking to help change that and make these important screenings more readily available.
On Saturday July 25th, 2015 the LV Sportz Foundation, with the support of the Glen Lerner Gives Back program, will be holding its now quarterly free sports physical and heart screening event to provide local youth ages 10 to 18 with FREE comprehensive pre-participation physical evaluations (PPEs/Sports Physicals) and youth athlete heart screenings utilizing 12 Lead EKG’s (thanks to grants from two local Sam’s Clubs and the Glen Lerner Gives Back program) and 2D Limited Echocardiogram’s (courtesy of the American Institute of Medical Sonography).
The screening event will be held at the American Institute of Medical Sonography (2310 Paseo Del Prado, Ste. A-120, LV, NV 89102) from 9am to 3pm.
Interested parents MUST pre-register for the event since there is limited space. Parents can visit the LV Sportz Foundation’s Website at http://lvsportz.com/screening for scheduling, forms and more information.
Thanks to support from the Glen Lerner Gives Back program, the organization will also be holding a Free CPR/AED Certification class for youth sports coaches and team moms during the event from 10am to 2pm (normally $25 or higher). Coaches and Team Moms can register here: http://lvsportz.com/schedule. Space is Limited to 12 coaches/team moms!
Brian Bartolome, Executive Director of the LV Sportz Foundation said, “We have established this unique and innovative screening event to ensure that student athletes have access to these potentially life-saving exams to prevent such incidents without having to worry about cost.”
He further stated that, “Using an EKG along with an Echocardiogram as a screening tool, in conjunction with a qualitative physical exam and review of personal and family history, physicians are better able to detect cardiac abnormalities in young athletes. We know we can’t catch everything but if we can identify even just one or two abnormal screens and potentially save a life, it is worth the extra precaution, especially if we can offer them for free so that they are equally accessible to everyone.”
Dr. Alfred Danielian, participating cardiologist from HealthCare Partners stated, "The LV Sportz Foundation’s Heart Screening Program for the local community is an effective way to detect conditions that may lead to sudden cardiac death in young athletes while providing invaluable data to advance future screening program across the country."
The LV Sportz Foundation also stated that they are looking at other possible additions to the event that include a Concussion Readiness Screening Program and/or sickle-cell screening as well as additional Injury Risk Assessments and more...
The screening events are part of the foundation’s larger Game-Saver Program which also includes low-cost American Red Cross CPR/AED Certification for coaches/team moms, hands-only CPR training for student-athletes and an A.E.D. Loaner program as part of their Positive and Safe Sports (P.A.S.S.) Initiative.

On Saturday January 31st, 2015 the LV Sportz Foundation will be holding its first sports physical and heart screening event of the year to provide local youth ages 10 to 18 with FREE comprehensive pre-participation physical evaluations (PPEs/Sports Physicals) and youth athlete heart screenings utilizing EKG’s and Echocardiogram’s.

It's estimated that more than 100 young athletes die each year in sports-related incidents, and the National Athletic Trainers' Association projects that nearly half of those deaths are attributed to sudden cardiac death. Some causes include hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) which involves the thickening of the heart muscle, forcing the heart to work harder to pump blood. Along with other cardiac problems, HCM is the overwhelming cause of sudden death in young athletes.
It is recommend by the NATA, the American Academy of Pediatricians and the American Heart Association that every child has an annual Pre-Participation Physical Exam (PPE) prior to participating in strenuous exercise or competitive sports, regardless if it is mandatory or not, to prevent sudden cardiac death and other major health issue on the playing fields.
A PPE can help identify congenital heart defects that can lead to SCA as well as any other musculoskeletal, spinal, dermatological or other health problems or risk factors a child may have. A PPE is different from a standard physical. The PPE specifically focuses on a child’s well-being as it relates to playing a sport. It's more limited than a regular physical, but it's a lot more specific about athletic issues.

First Ever Total Youth Hockey Experience A Huge Success
Written by LV Sportz FoundationCLICK HERE FOR PICTURES FROM THIS EVENT
On Saturday September 28th and Sunday October 13th, 2013 we partnered with the Las Vegas Wranglers, Las Vegas Roller Hockey Center, Las Vegas Police Hockey Team, Hero School, Empowering 2 Excel, Sports Blast and Honest-1 Auto Care Henderson in the first ever Total Youth Hockey Experience.
In this third event of its kind we played with a new format so the event would take place on two different dates. This was for a few different reasons: 1) Allow more time for the addition of additional programming; 2) Shorten the length of any single day; and 3) Work within the Las Vegas Wranglers schedule of availability.
Part One took place on Saturday September 28th. During this part of the event the kids participated in a 2 hour fundamentals clinic that was instructed by some of the Las Vegas Wranglers players, members of the Las Vegas Police Hockey Team and players from the AIHL Las Vegas Aces Roller Hockey Team. During this portion of the clinic they learned stick handling, passing, receiving, shooting and how to move the puck around.
After the skills clinic they received an awesome Life Mentoring Session from Tiger Todd from Hero School where they learned about the importance of Character Change. They then received free lunch, snacks and Sports Blast.
After lunch the kids participated in a skills competition. They were broken into 3 different age groups and competed in a timed course and goal shooting. The top 3 from each age group received an awards certificate, Cramer Messenger Bag, Gatorade Sports Bottle and either a Sports Blast Sports Bottle, Sports Blast T-Shirt and/or Sports Blast Hand Towl.
The kids where then visited by Duke, the Wranglers Mascot, who played a little hockey with the kids, took pictures and even participated in our next and final part...
Last but not least, we sat down with the kids and got a little serious. We talked to them about sports safety and various issues they could run into, how they happen and how they can be prevented. New to the programming, we then taught them how to perform Hands-Only CPR and about what an AED is and How it works. It was trully an experience that we will continue to have in future clinics. Even the younger kids, around 6 years old, were in complete attention and did their best to perform the skills... Even Duke jumped in and showed his CPR Skills!
Part Two took place on Sunday October 13th at the Orleans Arena. Here, Tito Munoz from the Las Vegas Wranglers took the kids and their parents through a tour of the back of the house, through the Wranglers tunnel, up to the VIP Area and of the Owner's Box. During the game, one lucky kid was chosen for a second intermission ride on a Zamboni Ice Machine. After the game the kids went on the ice with the team and took pictures and received some special attention by the players who helped in Part One.
All-in-All everyone had a great time and we look forward to doing it again real soon ;) Keep a look out for more Total Youth Sports Experiences coming your way soon!
LVSF Takes Part in the 2013 Step Up 4 Kids Event
Written by LV Sportz FoundationOn Monday September 23rd, 2013 we took part in the Nevada Institute for Children's Research and Policy's Step Up 4 Kids event held at the Las Vegas Natural History Museum. The event was held in conjunction as part of the National Step Up for Kids Event; A Nation-Wide Event Celebrating Families, Service & Promoting Healthy Communities.
The event was attended by about 100 families and featured over two dozen vendors, all of whom dealt with children related services and resources in some form or another. Families were allowed free entry to the event and the entire museum.
We set up our table and provided families with several pieces of sports safety information and information on our organization.
