About:
I would say that the JV and Varsity players (around 35) all helped out in some way. Whether it involved decorating the stands, collecting money, and just simply wearing the specially designed uniforms made for the game.
My captains were the main catalyst behind this cause. They were the ones organizing the uniforms, setting up a collection table, decorating the stands before the game, and holding the 50/50 raffle. The JV and Varsity games lasted a total of around 3 hours. Girls from both teams took turns running the collection table before the field entrance and roaming through the stands to get donations. We were able to collect 581 dollars for the cause. The money is being donated to Cops For Kids with Cancer. The idea to support the fight against pediatric cancer came from one of my captains at the end of August. We chose the game shortly after that we were going to make uniforms for that game showing our support.
