San Jose SaberCats News Release
SAN JOSE, Calif. - The SaberCats announced today that they will be hosting Breast Cancer Awareness Night on Saturday, May 11 when they host the Tampa Bay Storm at the HP Pavilion at 7:30 p.m. PT.
"Partnering with the American Cancer Society to aid in the fight against cancer is something we are very passionate about," said SaberCats Managing Partner Dave Fry. "Last year we raised a substantial amount of funds for this significant cause."
Fans can participate by purchasing a special edition pink Arena Football League official game football signed by either the entire SaberCats team, or the entire SaberKittens squad for $125. 70% of these proceeds will go directly to the American Cancer Society to aid in the fight against cancer. Included with the football are eight tickets for the game. The deadline to guarantee yours is set for noon PT on Wednesday, May 8, or while supplies last.
"One-hundred years ago, the word 'cancer' was rarely spoken, and we lost almost all patients to the disease," said Tulin Melton, American Cancer Society Regional Vice President. "Today the progress we have made is remarkable. Partnering with the SaberCats gives us an opportunity to encourage people to join together, make noise and take action to finish the fight against cancer."
The special edition pink footballs will be available to be picked up at the game on May 11 at the SaberCats marketing table located near Section 117 of HP Pavilion. Fans can purchase this package by going to http://www.thesanjosesabercats.com/pink.php
