The Carlile Family is so excited to announce that the 4th Annual Pitches for PKU Tournament will be back to a live event at Sutcliffe Park on September 11, 2021.

After a COVID break from in person fundraising in 2020 we are looking forward to welcoming our supporters back onto the field this year. Follow us on Instagram & Facebook for updates as the event approaches!

Dear Friends,

Thank you for supporting Pitches for PKU the past 2 years!  We are proud of our accomplishments to raise funds for the National PKU Alliance to help fund programs and research for the rare disease that our daughters Hattie and Maxine live with each day called PKU.  

Please know in our hearts we were so hopeful to hold the event once again this year, but under the circumstances with the COVID-19 affecting all of us today, we have decided to cancel this in-person event to be safe.  

We are excited to plan for next year and hope you will join us in September 2021!

In the meantime, we have decided to continue to support the NPKUA and it’s important work. Their work has not stopped or changed.  Hattie and Maxine, and others with PKU, still need all the important programs that the National PKU Alliance offers and we are hopeful that research continues to move forward.  Please join us and donate today!

Be well, stay safe & healthy!

The Carlile Family – Joe, Cassie, Hattie and Maxine
