Touchdowners Creed:  “WE DO IT FOR THE KIDS, THAT’S WHAT WE DO”


Who Are We:  Football!  Passionate young men and community involvement; what a wonderful way to support children who need your help most! The Midian Shrine Touchdowners Unit is an ever-changing group that is focused on contributing financially to the betterment of Shrine Children patients’ lives. Best of all Touchdowners enjoy what they do while they contribute.


What We Do:   TOUCHDOWNERS are a support unit for the West Kansas Shrine Bowl players and coaches.


Unit Meetings:  1st WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH @MIDIAN SHRINE CENTER


OK, but what do the TOUCHDOWNERS really do?  Annually the TOUCHDOWERS:

  • Help with presenting WEST Kansas Shrine Bowl players & coaches with their acceptance certificate to KSB.    The certificate is presented at the KSB player’s school, in front of their peers, often with their family and couches in attendance. Families from different communities see Shriners, often for the first time, in a positive interaction with the community.

  • TOUCHDOWNERS ANNUAL WEST Kansas Shrine Bowl Players and Coaches Banquet.  KSB West players, coaches, parents and spouses are our HONORED guests. The banquet is a celebration for those presented with presentations from the TOUCHDOWNERS. The banquet includes acknowledgments, a photo area for guest and great food. Attended by Shriners child patient’s ambassadors, Kansas Shrine Bowl Directors, Midian Shrine Divan, Nobles and Ladies, family and friends.

  • TOUCHDOWNERS ANNUAL GOLF TOURAMENT.  Unit members help set up for the golf tournament, work wherever is needed the day of the golf tournament (closest to the pin, land on the green, longest drive, play) Solicit items for action and give aways prior to the tournament.

  • TOUCHDOWNERS ANNUAL WEST Kansas Shrine Bowl Players and Coaches Feed at KSB WEST Combine.  Unit member’s travel to wherever the West KSB combine is being held. WE give the West SIDE team apparel, sign footballs, feed them and GET THEM HYPE FOR THE GAME!  WEST SIIDDDEEEE!

  • TOUCHDOWNERS ANNUAL Donation Check Presentation to Shriners Children at the Kansas Shrine Bowl game.  OVER $100,000 DOLLARS DONATED IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS! Just under $40,000 dollars donated in 2022, YES!   Unit members attend the KSB and support our West team and more importantly TOUCHDOWNERS SUPPORT THE CHILDREN!  Is there a better feeling than knowing that, YOU (a Midian Shriner) contributed in a tangible way to help children in need?

THE REAL MVP ALL STARS “OUR BENCH HAS DEPTH WITH MIDIAN DIVAN, UNITS, CLUBS, NOBLES AND LADIES”  Midian Shrine is a family and our family shows up for the Kansas Shrine Bowl West players, coaches and team every time! They come out to the presentations, they show up to the banquet, they sponsor players and coaches financially to attend KSB, they donate their time, energy and abilities at the Kansas Shrine Bowl event.
