Dig Pink®

A volleyball event experience for coaches, athletes, parents, and communities. Create a lasting tradition that funds metastatic breast cancer research and treatments through the Side-Out Foundation.

Do More Than Just Play Volleyball

Dig Pink events are for volleyball programs that want to have an impact on and off the court. Anyone can raise awareness but we believe true advocacy comes from giving people the opportunity to be involved in change.

Why They Love Dig Pink

“AS COACHES, WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT TRYING TO BETTER THE PERSON, NOT JUST THE PLAYER."

“As volleyball coaches, we always talk about trying to better the person, not just the player and this is that perfect example. Seeing the teams ban together to fundraise and come together for such an important cause is just such a pleasure to be part of.”

“I AM SO PROUD OF BRINGING A NEW SPIRIT AND TRADITION INTO OUR SCHOOL WITH DIG PINK.”

“We were all in for this one teacher, and I believe that our community was using our passion and love for sports to help the people around us. I am so proud of bringing a new spirit and tradition into our small school with Dig Pink.”

“A GREAT GAME, A GREAT CAUSE BRINGING TOGETHER GREAT COMMUNITIES.”

“This group is making a real difference in bringing precision medicine to the phase of the disease where it is needed most. A great game; a great cause; bringing together great communities. We will one day call the last point in the final set as we side out breast cancer once and for all.”
