Rugby Alberta Launches Endowment Fund to Support Alberta Athletes
Rugby Alberta is proud to announce the creation of the Rugby Alberta Endowment Fund, established in May 2025 in partnership with the Canadian Rugby Foundation.
What Is the Fund?
The Rugby Alberta Endowment Fund was created to establish a Player Assistance Fund. Its purpose is to support Alberta athletes who face financial barriers to participating in high-performance rugby competitions.
This includes helping athletes with costs related to training camps, travel, competitions, and talent identification programs. By removing financial barriers, more athletes will have the chance to compete at higher levels and pursue opportunities to represent both Alberta and Canada.
Why This Matters
High-performance rugby can be expensive. Costs such as travel, coaching, and competition fees can prevent talented athletes from advancing. The Rugby Alberta Endowment Fund provides a sustainable way to ensure athletes are supported, so financial limitations don’t stand in the way of their development.
This initiative reflects the shared objectives of Rugby Alberta, Rugby Canada, and the Canadian Rugby Foundation to develop and grow rugby across Canada.
Double Your Impact
Rugby Alberta will match all donations made before November 15, 2025, up to $25,000.
All donations are also eligible for charitable tax receipts through the Canadian Rugby Foundation.
This means your contribution will go further in helping Alberta athletes succeed.
