SA Call To Arms

Welcome to the official South Australian Call To Arms page.  Here you will find all the information on events, competitions and anything else state-based you may need to know about the event and how to get involved.

A huge thank you to the 255 clubs that participated last year. With their help, Cancer Council SA raised over $33, 000 to help tackle men's cancers right here in South Australia.

This year we are hoping that even more clubs register and help fundraise so we can beat that figure.  We hope that we can count on your team to help us tackle men's cancers.

If you haven't registered your club yet, it isn't too late. Simply select your state under the JOIN NOW button, click the button and follow the steps.
