The Sydney Swans are proud to celebrate their 15-year partnership with Redkite this year.

Redkite is a charity that provides essential services to children and young people with cancer.

Since 2001, Swans players including the likes of Brett Kirk, Rhyce Shaw and Harry Cunningham have supported families dealing with childhood cancer by participating in family days, visits to oncology wards and other Redkite events.

At 12.40pm before the main game kicks off, popular Australian celebrities will team up to contest an AFL9s match for Redkite, which will help raise awareness and much needed funds.

Redkite families will form the guard of honour as the Swans run onto the field for their match against Melbourne.

To mark the 15-year partnership with Redkite, Swans fans are encouraged to wear red for the inaugural #RedDay at the SCG this Sunday.

Come dressed in red or collect a Redkite headband on Driver Avenue for a gold coin donation.

Fans can also donate to Redkite via tin rattlers on their way into the ground or make a donation at www.redkite.org.au.
