Bluefield Beckley Oak Hill, WV, September 29, 2026 —

The Concord University Mountain Lions football program is collaborating with Ridin’ 4 A Cure, a non-profit organization based in Mercer County, to support local cancer survivors. This partnership will take place throughout the month of October, designated as Cancer Awareness Month.

As part of the initiative, Concord football players are scheduled to wear pink ribbons during games to signify their support and solidarity.

A key event planned for the collaboration is an invitation extended to local cancer survivors to participate in a pre-game ceremony. This ceremony is set to occur during a match at Callaghan Stadium on October 3rd. The partnership aims to raise awareness and highlight the experiences of individuals who have faced cancer.
