About:
During the month of October this is a tradition I know the field hockey community does, but also our volleyball and soccer teams. With October being breast cancer awareness month, we make pink shirts and socks, and usually do a bake sale/make food and collect donations.
This year in this area both my team and the girls volleyball team joined with Case high school (Swansea MA) three girls teams. The volleyball, soccer, and field hockey teams from there and our two teams donated our money to a young mom from Swansea battling stage 4 cancer. Teams can really donate anywhere they choose, we just chose there as it’s close to home. It’s an amazing thing the teams do!
We combined with volleyball at our school with all levels (freshman,JV, Varsity) for field hockey and volleyball together it was about 50 athletes!
