Support UBC Women’s Rugby

Your support will enhance the UBC Women’s Rugby program by providing further funding in the form of scholarships and awards, travel opportunities, and an elevated student-athlete experience which will allow them to focus their full attention on their studies and commitment to being a UBC Thunderbird.

Project Description

Supporting UBC Women’s Rugby gives our student athletes the opportunity to play the sport they love year-round. The funds raised will go towards team travel, hosting opportunities, and uniforms for our student athletes, as well as, providing additional academic and strength and conditioning support.

Challenges and Impact of Your Support

As the defending Canada West Champions, UBC Women’s Rugby is continuing to build our impressive program, but we can’t do it without your support. Your contributions will help support the student experience both on and off the field. Your donation is an investment in remarkable student athletes as our future young leaders, and the success of Thunderbird Women’s Rugby for years to come.

About Thunderbird Women’s Rugby
