Former star athletes such as Gary Dornhoeffer and Bob "The Hound" Kelley from the Philadelphia Flyers "Broad Street Bullies" days, NFL All-Pro defensive back and broadcasting legend Tom Brookshier, 76er and Celtic guard Gerald Henderson, American League MVP Bobby Shantz, and Philadelphia Phillies slugger Greg Luzinski will be playing in the event that benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Media luminaries such as radio legend and host of the Inside Golf television show Don Cannon, Comcast SportsNet and USA television sports reporter Michael Barkann, former NFL defensive back Beasley Reece of CBS-3, Scott Palmer of Channel 6, Daily News golf writer Mike Kern, local Philadelphian Gervis from the Survivor Amazon television show, and Dawn Timmeney of NBC-10 will make the day even more exciting.
