About Duchenne
The Blue Ball
Every boy deserves to play, and it is our aim to ensure that all the boys with Duchenne are able to have this chance.
The ball is a universal symbol of children playing. The Blue Ball brand identity signals hope, spirit, courage and the chance to play that we hope to preserve. The child's hand upon this blue ball represents all past, present and future children affected by Duchenne.
The Blue Ball campaign was developed as our primary means of raising much needed funds for research. Our intention is very simply to capture the playful spirit of the Blue Ball in as many arenas as we can.
On a national level, the Blue Ball Game will help raise awareness through professional sporting events. At a community level, the Blue Ball Sports Day is designed to energise children, parents and schools through a fun and educational process that everyone can get involved with in their local community.
