Shifting the Focus: The Pirates Community Chest Initiative
As an association, it's easy to become absorbed in our internal objectives like expansion and team success. Our new Community Chest initiative flips our focus back to the community, and asks, "What can we do for you?"
The initiative is centred on building a strong presence and connection within the SWM Pirates community, providing opportunities for those in need and who are in disadvantaged situations to play the game that we all love.
Throughout the year, we'll be conducting various programs that you may want to participate in – keep an eye out for more information.
Christmas Basketball & Shoe Drive
As part of our Pirates Communities Chest Christmas Basketball & Shoe drive Chris Angus had the privilege of being involved at Citipointe’s Christmas Hamper collection morning for local families in need this week. He distributed around 50 free basketballs donated by you our Pirates families the past month to go to kids who otherwise wouldn’t have had an opportunity to have one. Families could also register to come & collect free basketball shoes over the coming few weeks as well.
Thank you to everyone who donated & gave us the opportunity to make a difference in some local kids lives at Christmas. Well done Pirates Family
