We’re incredibly excited to share that Get Yourself Checked has been selected as the official beneficiary of the 50/50 charity raffle at the iconic The Gabba during the blockbuster clash between the Brisbane Lions and Collingwood Football Club.
On Thursday 2 April 2026 (Easter long weekend), tens of thousands of footy fans will pack the stands for a huge night game — and every raffle ticket sold will help fund life-saving prostate cancer awareness and early detection initiatives.
It’s a massive opportunity for us to reach the kind of people who often put their health last — dads, brothers, mates, tradies, workers and everyday Aussies.
Exactly who we’re here for.
Why this matters
At Get Yourself Checked, our mission is simple:
start conversations, encourage early checks, and prevent avoidable illness.
Being part of a game like this means we can connect with thousands of people in one night, raise critical funds, and spread a message that could genuinely save lives.
Because sometimes it only takes one chat, one reminder, or one check to change everything.
How you can get involved
To make the most of this opportunity, we’re calling on our community to help us run the 50/50 raffle on the night.
We need around 30 volunteers to join the team.
• Must be 18+
• Night game
• Fun, high-energy atmosphere
• Great way to support the cause
• Plus you get to enjoy a cracking game of footy

Let’s make it count
Footy has always been about mateship and community.
This night is about looking after each other too.
Come along. Sell some tickets. Have a laugh. Make a difference.
We’ll see you at the Gabba.
