Our tournament was initially created to help fund the St. Johns County Fire Rescue memorial wall. This wall recognizes the fallen brothers and sisters who dedicated themselves to serving our community. In our inaugural year, we raised over $60,000 to complete the project. To learn more, click here.

In 2025, we created a Fired Up Kingfish Tournament 503(c)(3) to further support our community. Funds for the 2025 tournament will support the Tanner Gillespie Foundation, which sends select St. Johns County high school graduates to fire school for free, HorsePlay Therapy group, which provides mental health therapy utilizing horses for military members and first responders, and Field of Dreams, which provides young adults with special needs the opportunity to play baseball on a handicap accessible baseball field.
