ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WKBW) \u2014 It may be the off-season for the Buffalo Bills, but there was still plenty of action on the turf over the weekend in Orchard Park.<\/p>\n

The Kaleida Health Performance Center at One Bills Drive hosted a flag football event Saturday for Big Brothers Big Sisters Erie, Niagara and Southern Erie.<\/a> The event brought together children, teens and mentors from across Western New York to connect through teamwork and fun on the field. Participants took part in skill-building drills and friendly scrimmages, all while building relationships with each other.<\/p>\n

Big Brothers Big Sisters provides a safe space for children ages six through young adulthood to connect one-on-one with mentors across Erie, Niagara and Cattaraugus counties. <\/p>\n

The organization will hold its 20th annual Fore the Children Golf Tournament <\/a>at the Transit Valley Country Club on August 3. The event raises more than $50,000 each year to support Big Brothers Big Sisters’ mission of connecting local children – known as ‘Littles’ – with ‘Bigs’ for impactful mentorships.<\/p>\n
