In Honor of Dave Decosta

My name is Kyla Buco and I am fundraising in honor of Dave Decosta. Last year, one of my closest friends’ dad died due to cancer. With growing up around basketball, that meant that I also grew up around Dave. From doing the scorebooks at the games of his daughter and I, all the way to post game pep talks, he was there for it all. He was one of my biggest supporters on and off the court since I was a little girl up until last year. So with that being said, I am trying to give back to him in anyway I can, so please consider donating to my fundraiser.
The A Shot For Life Gauntlet is a 24 hour marathon basketball event that is meant to be loosely symbolic of the struggle that cancer patients much endure in their fight against cancer. Since 2017, hundreds of players have put on the ASFL Gauntlet exclusive black and white jersey and gone up and down the floor with the cancer community on their back. The ASFL Gauntlet is open to all ages and skill levels with intense, moderate, casual, and beginner floors playing at once in the Starland Sportsplex.
Difference Maker $1,000:
The difference maker level is the baseline level of commitment for the ASFL Gauntlet. This level of fundraiser get an ASFL Gauntlet jersey.
Just Do It $2,000:
The hero level fundraiser is someone that commits a significant amount of time and energy to raising money for cancer research. This plateau brings with it an exclusive ASFL jacket that is unavailable to buy outside of the fundraising structure of the ASFL Gauntlet.
ASFL Shamrock Club $3,000:
The fundraisers that reach the ASFL Shamrock Club will be invited to an annual night at the TD Garden where they will be treated to a private ASFL suite during a Celtics game in the 2022-2023 season.
NO BRAKES DIVISION (4 Hours): The No Brakes Division is the newest addition to the ASFL Gauntlet. Our No Brakes players will play, almost non-stop, for a 4-hour sprint. At the completion of the 4 hours, our players will receive a completion medal. Our No Brakes players are welcome to remain at the facility for as long as they want and they may step into the Black Ops Division in the role of an as-needed substitute.
BLACK OPS DIVISION (24 Hours): The ASFL Black Ops Division is the traditional ASFL Gauntlet where players will play, with long break times fit in, for 24 consecutive hours. The ASFL Black Ops players will have access to our medical staff, will receive catered food, will have access to a lodging area for sleep shifts, and they will receive an “ASFL Black Ops” exclusive jersey.
Sign up individually or as a group! The ASFL Gauntlet is open to all ages and all skill levels. Previous players have ranged in experience from professional basketball players to participants that have never played basketball before but want to go up and down the court for a great cause!
