Cambridge High School Dig Pink Volleyball Match

The Cambridge volleyball team will be hosting its first Dig
Pink event on Thursday, September 26 as they take on Forsyth Central and
Roswell High School. Thursday’s Dig Pink event will benefit the Atlanta
affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Dig Pink is the name of the Breast
Cancer awareness rally that takes place in gyms all over the country during
Breast Cancer awareness month (October). High school and college volleyball
teams from all over the nation will be participating during the months of
September and October to help raise awareness. The goal for this initiative is
to raise funds to go towards research and “living with cancer” organizations.



The Bears will be tossing Dig Pink volleyballs to the crowd
at the match and getting student participation in a “Shirt Serve” competition,
with all proceeds going towards the battle against breast cancer.



The volleyball team encourages all fans to wear pink to the
matches on Thursday, and will also be giving a small tribute in honor of those
who have survived or are battling cancer.

“Volleyball programs from across the US have joined onto
this campaign more now than I have ever seen,” said head coach Katie Johnson.
“We are doing something for a greater cause and I think it helps our team to
recognize that there are bigger things in life than just volleyball.”



There will be a donation table at the gym entrance with more
information related to the battle against breast cancer.
