Underdogs returns to John Cain Arena for 2026

Melbourne radio trio Fifi, Fev and Nick are bringing back their Underdogs initiative for 2026, moving from football fields to basketball courts at John Cain Arena. The program gives children who face adversity through illness, bullying or social exclusion the opportunity to play sport in front of cheering crowds at major Melbourne sporting venues. Past participants have run onto the MCG and Marvel Stadium, with this year's underdogs set to play at halftime during a Melbourne United game, complete with their own locker room and names in lights.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
