LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, US, January 30, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- On February 10, 2024, the 37th Annual Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl Party, a cornerstone of Super Bowl festivities, is set to take over the Las Vegas Ahern Luxury Boutique Hotel, a premier partner and sponsor of the event. The event theme, “All In,” not only celebrates the essence of Las Vegas but perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Leigh Steinberg, one of the most influential figures in professional sports and philanthropy.

For 36 years and counting, Leigh’s annual parties offer a foundational opportunity to seek and support health innovation, treatment, and wellness modalities for athletes who are continually putting their physical and mental health at risk, by exploring the future of health with leaders in athletics, business, politics, entertainment, health, tech, and nonprofits.

Each year, the Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl Party partners with a nonprofit organization to highlight their efforts, bring awareness to their mission, and raise funds to help them continue their work. This year’s Nonprofit Impact Partner is Special Olympics. With a shared pursuit to support brain health and emotional well-being for all, and the core belief that athletics are not only a powerful means to create a healthy body and mind, but a vehicle to create community and initiate positive change, the relationship between Special Olympics and the Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl party is poised to inspire hearts and minds.

“Our party offers a unique opportunity to focus on player health and safety plus explore new breakthroughs in treating concussion,” says Leigh Steinberg. “And - we are always proud to use the event as a platform to celebrate the philanthropic efforts of owners, execs, players, and coaches, who change the world for the better.”

The 11th Annual Brain Health Summit, hosted and moderated by the Founder of Health & Human Rights Strategies, Dr. Nicole F. Roberts, kicks off the event, bringing together expert panelists to discuss the latest research in neuroscience and the role that access to care plays in rewiring our brains.

Leigh Steinberg's commitment to health innovation, treatment, and wellness for athletes is a constant focus. The Super Bowl Party serves as a foundation to shed light on this topic and offers leaders in sports and medicine a space to explore the future of health. This annual gathering spotlights the intersection of sports, medicine, and mental health, and propels the discourse on the future of health for athletes who dedicate their lives to the game. This year’s panelists include Dr. Dimitri A Christakis, Dr. Ryan D'Arcy, Dr. Komal Ashraf, Dr. Dawn Kamilah Brown, Dr. Charles Bernick, Dr. M. Windy McNerney, and Rianne Schorel.

During the event, the Steinberg DeNicola Humanitarian Awards will be presented to this year’s honorees including: Trey Smith of the Kansas City Chiefs and Kelvin Beachum of the Arizona Cardinals; Kordell Stewart, former player for the Pittsburgh Steelers; Kevin Warren, President and CEO of the Chicago Bears; Jen Welter, the first female coaching intern in the NFL and current coach for the Vegas Vipers; and Angela La Chica, President and CEO of LaChica Sports.

The prestigious awards ceremony recognizes outstanding individuals in the NFL community who devote their time to addressing societal issues and the welfare of humanity. Each year the honors are bestowed to a current player, former player, general manager, coach, and NFL Executive. Past honorees include Patrick Mahomes, Warren Moon, Larry Fitzgerald, Bruce Smith, Eric Dickerson, and Christian Okoye.

At the end of the awards ceremony, Terrell Owens will take the stage to announce the launch of the ICON Hall of Fame, a first-of-its-kind Pro Football Hall of Fame, created by players, controlled by players, and with voting by players only. Its mission is to give NFL athletes control of their own narrative, take care of each other as players, and build a legacy for future generations. Terrell will be joined by the other Founders and Board of Directors including Dan Pastorini, Tony Parrish, Ricky Williams, Femi Ayanbadejo, Derrick Deese, Garrison Hearst, and Chidi Ahanotu.
