FAIRHOPE, Alabama— The Fairhope Lady Pirates held a Pink Out at Pirate Gym Friday night for a special member of the Fairhope community who happens to be a Fairhope basketball mom as well.

Tandy Tait White was given a night of appreciation for her contributions to Fairhope area school programs and to show support for her and her family in her ongoing battle against breast cancer.

All of the players, cheerleaders, coaches, officials and most fans wore something pink for the evening.

White’s daughter Sidney White plays guard for the Lady Pirates and her nephews Rushing and Davis Watson play for the Pirates.

Lady Pirates head coach and girls athletic director Jessica Webb said the event had multiple benefits.

“We will be giving a portion of the proceeds to the Breast Cancer Foundation on top of the awareness and the education we want to raise for all the girls and the community. But we also just wanted to do something for Sidney and for Tandy who is so loved in the community and to show we care and to give the community this opportunity to give back as well as bring everybody together. We really appreciate everybody who came out and I just want to thank them so much for their support.”
