About:
Student-athletes across Central Massachusetts are coming together this fall through the Fight Like a Kid PLAY4KIDS Fall Games, using their seasons to raise awareness and support for children battling pediatric cancer.
The initiative brings together athletes from multiple schools and sports with one shared mission: to make sure no child fights alone.
Throughout September and October, teams are dedicating games to Fight Like a Kid, encouraging fans to choose a game, pack the stands, and show their support for kids and families impacted by cancer.
Participating events include:
- Nipmuc Field Hockey vs. Sutton
- Nipmuc Boys Soccer vs. Northbridge
- Whitin vs. Hopkinton
- BVT Girls Soccer vs. Millbury
- Nipmuc Volleyball vs. Whitinsville Christian
- Uxbridge Field Hockey vs. Doherty
- Quaboag Football vs. Worcester Tech
- Nipmuc Girls Soccer vs. Douglas
The Fall Games span several sports and schools, showing how student-athletes can come together across different teams, uniforms, and communities for one meaningful cause.
Through dedicated games, fundraising, awareness efforts, and strong community support, these athletes are using their platforms to stand with children and families facing cancer.
The PLAY4KIDS Fall Games are a powerful example of how high school sports can go beyond competition and become a vehicle for compassion, advocacy, and service.
Different schools. Different sports. One mission: no child fights alone.
