OCTOBER ROSE: JDA Dijon makes way for the association Avec la Deuche Rose
On the forecourt of the Palais des sports Tuesday, October 19, the club will make way for the association Avec la Deuche Rose working with women with breast cancer.
JDA supports Operation Pink October
On the occasion of the Basketball Champions League meeting and the return of the European Cup to the Sports Palace on October 19 at 8:30 p.m. against the Russian club Nijni Novgorod, the JDA Dijon wished to highlight a Dijon association mobilized against breast cancer. Avec la Deuche Rose has been working since 2018 with women affected by the disease, by offering them moments of well-being and escape, but also by carrying out various awareness-raising actions.
The association will be present on Tuesday from 7:00 p.m. on the forecourt of the Palais des sports, with its traditional pink two-horse. The volunteers will also run a stand to meet the supporters, women and men, of the JDA Dijon. The association will also be visible on the giant screens of the Palais des sports and presented by the speaker of the room.
Until Tuesday, the association will be highlighted on all club communication media as well as in the new digital match program.
For Nathalie Voisin, the club’s general manager, this collaboration was natural: “We are all concerned by this disease. I wanted an operation to see the light of day in October because our community is important today. We bring together professional and amateur players, employees, women entrepreneurs, supporters and volunteers. Unfortunately, our handball team was not playing at home in mid-October. So we use the reach of a home men’s basketball game and when we can get public service announcements out, we do it with enthusiasm. “
In order to color the Palais des sports and recall the symbolism of the month of October, the JDA Dijon offers all supporters dressed in pink to benefit from a 50% reduction on the purchase of additional seats.
