WATER POLO PINK ROUND RAISING BREAST CANCER AWARENESS

The CGS Water Polo Pink Round this year was a tremendous success, raising an impressive $7,666 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) — the most funds raised for NBCF by a Grammar community to date. Led by the 2024 Water Polo Captains, the annual event brought CGS teams to the pools in custom pink suits designed by Delfina Australia, who donated 50% of the suit sales to NBCF. The day’s activities, including a BBQ, bake sale, and fairy floss stand, created an atmosphere of camaraderie and purpose.

For Savannah, this year’s event held special meaning as a tribute to a close friend recently lost to breast cancer. Her personal motivation drove the captains and community to make the 2024 Pink Round CGS’s most impactful yet.

Throughout the weekend, CGS teams from U14s to Opens competed against Canberra and Wagga Wagga teams, with both the Opens Men’s and Women’s teams delivering standout performances. The funds raised will support breast cancer research, ensuring that CGS’ efforts have a lasting impact.

The captains extend heartfelt thanks to all players, coaches, families, and friends who contributed to the success of Pink Round 2024, along with Water Polo ACT, Mr Ryan McDermott, and Mr Kyle Piper for their support.

Together, the CGS community continues to make a difference, one game at a time.
