Sun Belt, American Cancer Society Announce Cover Your Bases Initiative

NEW ORLEANS – The Sun Belt Conference and the American Cancer Society are teaming up once again, this time for the 2018 Cover Your Bases initiative with the conference's baseball and softball programs, as a part of the Sun Belt Fights Cancer (SunBeltFightsCancer.org) partnership.

Cover Your Bases is a nationwide collaboration between the American Cancer Society and baseball/softball teams/organizations, at every level across the country. The purpose is to impact local communities and save lives by educating fans about sun safety, healthy living and prevention.

At games through the end of the regular season and at the Sun Belt Softball Championship (May 9-12) and Baseball Championship (May 22-27), the conference and its teams will create moments to support the mission of the American Cancer Society and develop impact/fundraising opportunities in their respective communities.
