White Ribbon is the world’s largest male-led movement to end men’s violence against women.
The White Ribbon Campaign is about recognising the positive role that men play in preventing violence against women. It fosters and encourages male leadership in the prevention of violence against women, based on the understanding that most men are not violent.
The White Ribbon Cup was established by the Inner West Domestic Violence Liaison Committee with West Harbour Rugby Union and Sydney University Rugby Union in 2011, and is played annually between West Harbour Rugby Union and Sydney University Rugby Union 1st Grade. It is a vehicle for players, coaches, managers and supporters to raise awareness of the White Ribbon campaign, and to also take the White Ribbon Oath, swearing never to commit, excuse or remain silent about violence against women.
This is the 7th year West Harbour and Sydney Uni will play for the White Ribbon Cup. The match will be played at the SUFG (No.2 Oval), kicking off at 3.00pm on Saturday 21st April.
Entry is $15 for adults, $10 for seniors, $5 for students and free entry for children aged 17 years of age and under.
