The Christmas Cup is a charity fundraiser event for Pass it on Clothing. They provide free items of clothing to the homeless and disadvantaged communities across Manly, Sydney and NSW.

As of 20/10/2024, they have passed on 319,262 pieces of clothing across 1,033 outreach sessions and services. Christmas can be a tough time of year for the homeless and we want to do our bit to raise awareness and money to help out.

This event will mix people from the Beach Volleyball and Supball communities. When purchasing your ticket, please provide us with your gender, experience and expertise for both sports, from AAA to no grading for Beach Volleyball and experienced, intermediate, beginner or first-time for Supball. A draw will be made before the event to make teams as evenly balanced as possible. Based on your response, you will be placed in a team and play social Beach Volleyball and Supball with your teammates to compete for the Christmas Cup!

The Schedule

- 11:30am arrive at Manly Cove, West Esplanade for registration and an explanation of how the day will run. Pass it on Clothing will have a clothing bin that you can deposit any unwanted items of clothing in that can be distributed to the homeless for Christmas. Have a big brekky, be fueled and ready to go!

- 12pm-4pm you will be playing social Beach Volleyball and Supball with your teammates (you will get regular breaks). Games will be timed and if the scores are level, it's a draw. There is no scoring limit and you play until the clock runs down. 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss. Half of the teams will start off playing Beach Volleyball, whilst the other half play Supball, then there will be a switching of sports at 2pm.

- 4pm go home, change, have something to eat and get ready for the afterparty.

- 6pm-midnight arrive at Tropikana Bar on the main beachfront in Manly, next to The Steyne for the afterparty! We will start proceedings with the awards ceremony. Bronze, Silver and Gold medals will be presented to the 3rd, 2nd and 1st-placed teams. The Christmas Cup will be presented to the winning team and yes, of course, you will be able to drink out of it! In the event of a tie for podium places, this will be decided by a dance-off. If your team doesn't finish in the top three, don't worry, you still have the opportunity to go home with something. There will be a raffle for Pass it on Clothing which so far includes prizes from different sports, including Netball, Cricket, NRL, Rugby, NFL, Australian Olympics, Australian Commonwealth Games, AFL, Soccer and more. Following the awards ceremony and raffle, 'Tasteful Nudes' DJ Nick Mags and Bongo Player Jimmy Wolfy will provide the live music entertainment for the afterparty! To get you in the mood, you will receive two free drinks vouchers on arrival and pizzas and platters cocktail-style food.

The whole venue of Tropikana Bar is booked out for us exclusively for the Christmas Cup event. You will have your name checked and be wristbanded on arrival.

Please be respectful of everybody on the day. This includes your teammates, your opponents and the people serving you. It's Christmas, have fun!
