The Qantas Australian Women's Sevens team has thrown its support behind an initiative to raise money for the ARU's charity partner, Redkite.

The competition will see a member of the public win a Golden Ticket for themselves (plus one) to every event at Qantas Credit Union Arena in 2015.

Women's Sevens stars Sharni Williams, Shannon Parry, Tiana Penitani, Emma Tonegato, Ellia Green, Tanisha Stanton, Alicia Quirk, Chloe Dalton and Gemma Etheridge all backed the competition at a photoshoot in Narrabeen.

"It's for a great cause. And wow, what a prize! I'll definitely be entering!" said national Women's Sevens player and Youth Olympics Gold Medal winning captain Tiana Penitani.

Redkite is the ARU's chosen charity partner and is the Australian cancer charity providing essential support to children and young people (0-24 years) with cancer, and their families and support networks.
