#wavethescarf
At home games in 2016, Collingwood has revived an old tradition. And we want you to be a part of it.
When captain Scott Pendlebury calls his players into a huddle in the Ponsford Stand goal square in the minute before the first bounce, our trainers will wave their towels above their heads.
At this moment, it’s your cue to wave your Collingwood scarf, creating a sea of Black and White across the MCG.
Sound familiar?
It’s a tradition inspired by past Collingwood trainers such as Harry Langdon and John MacGibbon, who were loved by players and supporters alike for waving their trainers’ towels above their heads on the boundary line to rally the Victoria Park crowd and inspire the players into action.
Wherever you are around the ground, make sure you #wavethescarf and help charge the atmosphere as the players prepare for the first bounce.
