  Head Coach Joe Philbin and Miami Dolphins players took part in a community service project at Dave and Busters in Hollywood. Current players paired up with 100 students from Orchard Villa Elementary and Kelsey L. Pharr Elementary

“A big part of what we do is making an impact in the community,” said Head Coach Joe Philbin. “The kids had fun, the staff had fun and the players had a great time. Hopefully, a lot of the students will look back years from now and remember this day fondly and hopefully their interaction with the players and staff will make a difference.”
