Making History

We did it. The Women's Cougar Rugby (aka the BYU women's rugby team) is going to the national tournament! As a result of our win against Cal Berkeley this past weekend in the Pacific Coast Playoffs, for the first time our team is going to the Sweet 16 on April 17-18! Hooray!

However, the Sweet 16 is in Florida this year and due to the lack of recognition/funding from BYU, we are in desperate need of funds. Each plane ticket is $500 x 22 players + 2 coaches: A LOT OF MONEY! So while this post is a to tell of our great successes, I also do this to ask for your support. If you can even spare 10.00, our team could use your help. Please, please, PLEASE go to www.womenscougarrugby.com and hit "Donate To the Team" on the left-hand side of the page. All donations are secure on paypal and are tax-deductible. Tell your friends, neighbors, and anyone you can find about our story and donate now! Thank you for your support!
