-Besides playing three shows at Mohegan Sun over the weekend, the Jonas Brothers also showed off their athletic sides playing in both a kickball game and a Road Dogs softball game on Sunday afternoon. The “Kick For A Change” kickball game put the Jonas crew against tour sponsors Verizon.
Nick told reporters “First of all, kickball is like recess from our tour. But more importantly, we’re here helping important causes.” “We are here to help out – in a fun sort of way – people who are in a not-so-good place,” added Kevin Jonas.
Before the game, Verizon donated $5,000 to the Women’s Center of Southeastern Connecticut and the phone company asked fans in attendance to donate used cell phones and accessories to its HopeLine program, which provides phones for victims of domestic abuse.
The Kickballers won their game against the Love Bugs and but lost 4-3 to the Black Keys, two teams made up of winners of the Verizon Green Screen Community Contest, which called for fans to edit themselves into videos of the Jonas Brothers in concert and playing kickball.
Check out some pics from Extra below. We hear the Road Dogs lost their softball game too. You can read another article about the game HERE. The Jonas Brothers also won a TMF Award in Belgium for “Best Video – International.” Congrats!
