Pink sock day raises $2000

Woy Woy Junior Rugby Union has raised over $2000 in support of the McGrath Foundation with teams from all over the Coast donning pink socks at Woy Woy Oval on Saturday, July 16.

"Last year Daniel MacLean from our under-11s (now under-12s) suggested his team wear pink socks to raise money for the McGrath Foundation," said media officer Mr Billy MacLean.

"The whole team agreed and all the boys wore the socks and raised over $2000.

"This year it was the rest of the clubs turn to don the pink socks.

"We had all teams from under-7s to under-15s taking part in our Pink Sock Day at Woy Woy Oval.

"All kids were given a pledge sheet to get friends and family to sponsor their team for every try they scored.

"One of the dads from the under-12's underestimated the boys as he pledged $10 per try.

"The boys ran in nine.

"We have raised $1750 from Saturday's efforts alone.

"Once all the pledge sheets come in the total is going to be well over $2000.

"It is one thing to be proud of kids playing rugby union in the spirit of the game but to see all the kids wearing pink for this great cause makes our whole club very proud indeed," said Mr MacLean.
