«Baranovichi» footballers played in pink kits. Now they will be sold at auction
FC «Baranovichi» played in unusual pink kits, and now the jerseys with players' autographs will be sold at a charity auction. This way, the footballers drew attention to breast cancer prevention.
FC «Baranovichi» wore pink kits for a friendly match against the Belarus youth national team. The game ended in a 3:3 draw.
The campaign was held as part of "Pink October". The pink ribbon and pink color are used worldwide as symbols of campaigns dedicated to breast cancer prevention and supporting people with the disease.
The head coach of «Baranovichi», Roman Kirenkin, stated that such topics must be raised in sports: «There is a saying: if you are healthy, you can have a thousand desires, but if you are sick, only one».
According to the coach, the club immediately supported the proposal to hold a charity event.
«Every person should help others. As a club, we also welcome such initiatives. If we help at least one person, and even more so ten, it will be very important and pleasant for us. We do this not to show off, but simply to help people», — Kirenkin told the publication «Tochka».
