Girls Rugby @ Novos - Newcastle

Aim

Raising funds so that GIRLS CAN PLAY RUGBY TOO! Need to get essential kit, equipment and advertising so that more girls can play rugby!

Who are we?

We are the GIRLS SECTION of Novocastrians RFC rugby club

Why are we crowdfunding?

We are crowdfunding to resource essential kit, training equipment, and advertising to recruit and keep GIRLS playing RUGBY at Novocastrians. This will help us to keep GIRLS playing RUGBY locally, and assist the development of our young female players. 

How we’ll spend the money raised

Essential kit: Shirts, shorts, socks, gumshields, drinks bottles, boots where needed

Equipment: Tackle pads, crash mats, safety kit (1st aid etc), training poles & cones

Coaches apparel

Advertising - printing and social media promotions

Treats and prizes for the GIRLS!

Community impact

We are trying to recruit from the local community - so that we can get more GIRLS playing RUGBY as part of the SPORT ENGLAND MOVEMENT FUND. Our club is local, and supported by the local community. 

How you can play your part

There are four simple ways to help us reach our target, and make this project a reality. ULTIMATELY - JUST DONATE WHAT YOU CAN! Any amount is helpful and SPORT ENGLAND will also be supporting the campaign financially

1. Make a pledge. Don’t delay if you’re going to support us because momentum is key to our success!

2. Spread the word. Share our project on your social media pages and tell the world to get behind us! The more people we reach, the more support we will get.

3. Offer rewards. Get involved if you are a local business by donating things we can offer to our supporters. We will give you a shout out!

4. Fundraise for us. If you want to run your own fundraiser – maybe a sponsored activity or similar – use the 'contact project' button at the top of our page to let us know. Setting up your own page only takes a few minutes and you won’t need any bank details. Just a fun idea!
