Our Commitment to Covering Burnsville Sports

Sports are a part of every community. They provide a source of energy on a fall Friday night, a vehicle for navigating the long Minnesota winters and a talking point for comparing athletes, teams and success years down the road.

And then there are the games themselves—and the individual moments during those games—that athletes, parents, neighbors and friends will remember for the rest of their lives.

Those moments should be highlighted. That’s why we're here.

We are Patch.com, and we are proud to become part of the Burnsville community. 

At Patch, we understand the imprint that high school athletics have on people’s lives. That’s why our goal is to help report Burnsville’s local coverage in as many different ways as possible.

Highlighting youth teams is another important part of community sports coverage, and for that, we’re hoping you will help. Send us your from seventh grade basketball or pee wee hockey. Let us know when your teams win tournaments, including names of players, when the tourney took place, records and results, and we’ll put it on our website.
