Donate Today!

While our Women’s Premier League side allows players to compete at the highest level of domestic women’s rugby, it also serves as a pathway to compete at an international level. However, cross-country traveling, work schedule flexibility demands, and general funding can be barriers for many players to overcome, as we have historically been player funded. Through your donations, we can better support NYRC players and lower financial barriers to allow players to reach their full potential.
