About RIBS

All proceeds from both the RIBS Tournament & Rylee's Run 5K will benefit the LeBonheur Children's Hospital Neuroscience Institute and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

Both causes have special meaning to GMSA and several of its members, including Jason & Jessica Vinson. Jason plays in our men's league, and manages Those Guys FC in our coed league; Jessica also plays for Those Guys FC, and has played in our women's league as well. She is also on the staff of our host site, the Mike Rose Soccer Complex. Both have played in GMSA for more than fifteen years, and are familiar faces around the league.

Jason and Jessica have shared the story below of their daughter Kayden, as well as that of their late daughter Rylee. Other members of our league have also shared their stories below.
