About Jeff

Jeff Koosmann was a very special man. He was also a man who loved sports and loved seeing others enjoy sports. Jeff was a lifelong athlete, competing in three sports in high school—football, basketball and nearest and dearest to his heart, baseball. He was also a mentor and role model for younger athletes at every opportunity.

Jeff was an avid athlete throughout his life. He was an athlete, a coach, a mentor and his favorite role, teammate. He valued and supported his teammates and believed that sports should be played with effort, pride, integrity, and enthusiasm.

The goal of the fund is to honor Jeff’s memory and continue his legacy of encouraging and supporting local community sports and youth.
