Rugby remains a male-dominated sport with women making up just over a quarter of all players.
However, women’s rugby is on the rise and is experiencing significant growth around the world, with the number of registered players growing by 28% since 2017. The opportunities for growth within women’s rugby make it a great sport for young women to get involved in.
This scholarship aims to help women’s rugby players pay for college so they can afford the costs of higher education.
Any female rugby player who is a high school senior, undergraduate, graduate student, or trade school student may apply for this scholarship.
