In aid of the Movember foundation, for the 10th year in a row, City SC’s coaches teamed up to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health by attempting to grow ridiculous looking handlebar moustaches or taking up the ‘Move for Movember’ (walk/run/other 60+ miles) challenge in return for sponsorship/donations towards men’s health.
In total, our team of dedicated fundraisers managed to raise a very impressive $5,297. Over the past ten years our City SC Movember team has raised $55,024 for Movember and Men’s Health. What an incredible achievement.
2024 Team Highlights: Former club coach and longtime club stalwart, Rich Cooper, raised the most, with a massive $2,704. Coach DJ came in second with $1,104 and Coach Glenn in third with $1,052. In miles ran, Coach Glenn was the winner with 121 miles, Coach DJ in second place with 100 miles and Coach Adam in third place with 82 miles.
The team would like to thank everyone that donated. All in all, it was a valiant effort again. Well done team!
BACKGROUND
Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men. Movember is the leading global organization committed to changing the face of men’s health. They achieve this by challenging men/women to grow moustaches or ‘Move for Movember’ during Movember (the month formerly known as November) to spark conversation and raise funds for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems.
