Sligo Rovers are proud to team up with Umbro and the National Breast Cancer Research Institute (NBCRI) to launch a special limited-edition pink jersey in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

This one-off kit has been designed with elements of the NBCRI logo, and 100% of proceeds will go directly to breast cancer research. Both Sligo Rovers and Umbro are covering production costs so that every purchase supports the charity.

Standing Together

Club captain Emma Hansberry said:
“Wearing this jersey is about more than football. It’s about standing with those affected by breast cancer and supporting vital research in Ireland. We’re proud to play our part in this campaign.”

How to Get Involved

The kit and matching merchandise will be available for pre-sale online from Friday at midday. Supporters can also purchase limited edition match programmes at the final home game of the senior women’s season on Saturday, 4 October, with all proceeds going to NBCRI.

Entry to the match is free. The day will also include a raffle and entertainment, making it a family-friendly event for all ages.

Supporting Research

Professor Michael Kerin, Director of Research at NBCRI, welcomed the campaign:
“We are absolutely delighted to have the Sligo Rovers Women’s Team supporting our research efforts. Their commitment to raising both funds and awareness for our charity is deeply appreciated. The support of Sligo Rovers and Umbro through this initiative will significantly contribute to our mission, helping us improve treatment and survival for women across Ireland and beyond.”
