Players In Motion is the LCC football team Community Service Program, which gives players the opportunity to assist those in need and earn service hours.

Operation America Cares
(a 501(c)(3), which is recognized by the Internal Revenue Service).

From the Folks at Operation America Cares: Dear Patriotic Americans, We want to thank you for your recent very generous contribution to our care packages for American troops serving in Afghanistan. Your generosity demonstrates to our young men and women serving away from home, that we recognize and appreciate their sacrifices on our behalf. Our care packages make them a little more comfortable by providing items that they do not have access to much of the time, if ever. Many of our military personnel have no families or are from families that cannot afford this kind of support, and our care packages are the only mail that they receive. We definitely make a difference! God bless you! Once again, thank you for supporting our troops! Roberta Mattice & Linda Millimaki, Directors Operation America Cares

Austin Scruggs, founded Players in Motion as a way to give the football team the opportunity to give back to their community by offering community service events throughout the year. His goal was to create a legacy and to give future players the opportunity to give back and to gain leadership experience. Austin graduated in the class of 2010 and now attends the University of California at Santa Barbara. Please continue to support the current and future leaders in the program so that they can continue to expand the program and better the community with the help of the team.
