The University of Maine women’s basketball team announced on April 20 that it has opened an auction for its game-worn pink jerseys. The jerseys were worn by the Black Bears during their annual Pink Game, which aims to raise awareness of breast cancer and support breast cancer research.

The auction gives fans the opportunity to own a special piece of memorabilia while contributing to a cause related to health and community well-being. All proceeds from the sale will go toward supporting the team’s annual Pink Game initiatives focused on breast cancer awareness and research.

Bidding for each jersey began on April 20 and will continue through May 4. Each jersey starts at a minimum bid of $100. Interested participants can place their bids online via the provided link in the announcement.

The event is part of ongoing efforts by the University of Maine women’s basketball program to engage with fans and support important causes through athletics. The Pink Game has become an annual tradition, highlighting both community involvement and charitable giving within collegiate sports.

As bidding continues, organizers encourage supporters to participate in order to help further breast cancer awareness efforts in connection with this yearly event.
