BREAKTHROUGH ROUND IS BACK FOR 2024/25 SEASON
Baseball SA are joining forces once again with the Breakthrough Mental Health Research Foundation for another impactful Community Round! This year, the round will take place during State League Round 3, from October 25th to 27th. Strategically scheduled to coincide with Mental Health Awareness Month, this round aims to amplify our efforts in promoting mental health within our community.
We’re kicking things off with an information session designed to bring our community together, learn more about mental health, and explore ways to get involved. Jade and Sharna from Breakthrough will walk us through the fundraising portal, resources, and other materials, providing insight into the Foundation’s incredible work.
📅 TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1ST
⏰ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm
📍 SPORT SA TRAINING ROOMS
Please RSVP to us by Friday, September 27th via this online form: https://forms.office.com/r/6gdhBxAfSG
In continuation of our tradition, we encourage clubs to wear tape armbands to symbolise our shared commitment to mental health awareness. More information regarding tape allocation and distribution will be provided soon to clubs.
We’re also excited to partner with our Women's League Sponsor, Belgravia Apparel, to offer purple socks for clubs to purchase and wear during this round, further raising awareness and support.
“This initiative is an excellent opportunity for our community to come together, support mental health awareness, and make a positive impact through the sport we all love,” says Molly, Membership, Events, and Marketing Manager at Baseball SA. “We did such a great job last year raising awareness and funds—I think we can well and truly beat last year’s goal of $2,000!”
Mental health is a crucial topic that can be challenging for many. Let’s be mindful of one another and offer support wherever possible. If you or someone you know needs help, please visit: Breakthrough Foundation – Get Help Now or check out the Health & Wellbeing Resources on our website.
Let’s join hands and make this year’s Community Round even more successful. Your participation, support, and enthusiasm can help make a real difference in our community!
