About:
On October 6, the Yorktown Field Hockey team participated in a walk at FDR Park in support of Support Connection, a local organization offering free, confidential services to those affected by breast and ovarian cancer. They followed this with a special Pink Game, where the team donned pink gear to raise awareness and funds for the cause. A bake sale and candy sale were also held at the game to boost donations. The event was a powerful example of athletes using their platform to make a positive community impact, emphasizing unity, compassion, and service both on and off the field.
