Local pro sports teams are hosting a variety of events throughout the area over the next two months as the Predators hold tryouts, the Titans put on a lacrosse clinic, and the Magic keep kids busy over spring break with basketball camps.

Thanks to the Orlando Magic, even the most hardened competitors on the basketball court might have grown a bit misty-eyed watching the joyous smiles of kids getting presents and bicycles on what might have otherwise been a lean holiday season.

Before the NBA preseason got underway this month members of the Orlando Magic participated in the 18th annual Championship for Charity Golf Tournament at Reunion Resort where more than $250,000 was raised for the Orlando Magic Youth Fund (OMYF).
