 | October is Play 4 the Cure Month! Make A Difference! Play Pink! Play 4 the Cure!
If you are a hockey player, captain, coach, manager, parent, fan - we want your participation in PLAY 4 the Cure October! We are launching this annaul fundraising initiative for the Susan G. Komen for the Cure as an outreach from our successful indoor event in December (see events). Breast cancer affects one out of every eight women in the United States. In 2007, almost 180,500 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed; and although that number has decreased from previous years, there are still more than 40,000 deaths annually from this disease. October is the height of the field hockey playing season in the United States! AND October is also the month when the National spotlight shines on breast cancer awareness. The merger of passion for our sport and a give back opportunity during our peak playing season - with this month long fundraising effort - make for the ultimate winning combination of athletics and humanitarianism.
