Have a Ball Board Members:
Bob Hammer
Founder/Executive Director
Bob is a two-time testicular cancer survivor. During his second bout, he raised money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation and met Lance and Lance's oncologist, Dr. Craig Nichols, in Texas. This was one week before he was set to have a surgery at Stanford which would have left him unable to have any more children. Dr. Nichols suggested he not have the surgery, and Bob listened. Bob and his wife Kim naturally conceived their second child, Josh, one year later. In an effort to give back, Bob started the "Have a Ball" Foundation.
Bob serves on several cancer advisory boards including the Wellness Community Bay Area and the Second Opinion in San Francisco.
Bob lives in Danville, CA with his wife Kim, daughter Shayna and son Joshua. He enjoys coaching, and coached Track & Field for 12 years for Carlmont High School where he coached 3 different girls in 5 years to the State Meet in the Long Jump.
He currently coaches San Ramon Valley Softball, Danville Little League, Mustang Soccer and Danville Basketball for his 2 children.
