Maccabi FC will play in purple on Sunday 27 July 2025

Dear Maccabi FC Caulfield family,

In season 2024 the families of Maccabi FC Caulfield raised over $1300 for Pankind Foundation, we want to smash that record in season 2025.

Once again, we are proud to be supporting the 2025 Play in Purple campaign which raises funds and awareness for pancreatic cancer through the sport we love.

Research shows that a healthy lifestyle, exercise, and social connection are powerful factors in reducing the risk of cancer and participating in Play in Purple helps us to spread this important message.

Play in Purple is now in its 10th year and has more than 50,000 participants from over 200 clubs. The concept is simple, inclusive and fun for players of all ages.

Simply by swapping our club socks for Pankind Foundation purple socks for one round in this season, we can raise awareness and funds for this very important cause.

As a club, we see this as a wonderful opportunity to increase player and community engagement, whilst spreading a vital message, and we encourage ALL teams to get involved. Our Play in Purple round will be on 27 July 2025 when we’ll be doing our best to turn our club purple for pancreatic cancer.

We encourage teams and spectators to get into the spirit of the campaign by not only wearing their purple socks, but painting their faces, colouring their hair, wearing purple headbands and anything else you can think of!

Key information for this year’s Play in Purple round is here. Please communicate this to your teams.
