$50

Training Equipment

$50 donation is a great way to contribute to our training equipment needs for the program. This goes towards training cones, agility poles, training bibs, ball bags, hit shields and so on! Without these basics we are not able to develop our players to the best of our ability and like all rugby equipment, needs constant upkeep! (fully tax-deductible)

$100

Rugby Equipment

Your donation of $100 can help us purchase rugby specific equipment such as custom branded match day balls or training balls. We roughly go through 40 balls a season from constant wear and tear (fully tax-deductible)

$500

Game Day Kit Laundry

That's right! We play a contact sport in the dirt. This means our brand new team uniforms need constant care and attention from our friends at the laundromat each week. Getting all those rugby stains out of roughly 40 uniforms each week adds up. Our weekly cost for this is roughly $500 and sometimes more depending on rips and tears that need fixed! (fully tax-deductible)

$1,000

Media Equipment

Each week we are required to film and share our matches with league officials. We also utilize this same software for important game review as a coaching and learning tool for our players. $1,000 takes care of all our media and video software needs that has been a huge growth tool for our players to see their performances and learn from them. (fully tax-deductible)

$1,500

Live Streaming Games

Our families and alumni are all over the world and we aim to provide uninterrupted access to our players and the matches each and every week. To do this, we need the services of some of the best media equipment and staff required to fulfill this need. This is a huge priority for the program and $1,500 goes along way to maintaining this need. It demonstrates a way we can give back to our community by streaming games and sharing content of our players. (fully tax-deductible)

$2,000

Game Day Operations

We are fortunate enough to play our home games on one of the best rugby fields in the country. The facilities also allow us to utilize the amazing resources at hand. This includes a live scoreboard with video replay capabilities, an amazing PA system for commentary and live music and amazing staff that take care of all our supporters to provide the best game day experience in college rugby! A $2,000 goes a long way to allowing us to have this available to all our supporters and visitors for every home game! (fully tax-deductible)

$2,500

Acosta Athletics Center

We finally have access to the UCLA Athletics high performance facility, known as the Acosta Training Center for High Performance! Our entire squad now gets to work with fully certified strength coaches from the UCLA Athletics department on a weekly basis. As great as this sounds, this service comes with a price tag. It costs the club $2,500 a month to utilize these amazing facilities. It was a difficult venture to obtain this privilege and it would be devastating to lose it! Please help us keep Acosta by donating! (fully tax-deductible)

$5,000

Assistant Coaches

We currently have some of the best assistant coaches in the country. For us to continue this trend we need to be able to compensate them accordingly. Monthly wages for our staff add up but a donation of $5,000 essentially covers a full month for our assistant coaches. Obviously our goal is to have a full time assistant coach but until then we are needing your help! (fully tax-deductible)

$7,500

Team Lodging

To be the best you have to go far and wide to compete with the best. Some of our opponents within our conference are far away that we require lodging to allow our players the best preparation for our away matches. Hotel charges for taking 2 teams on the road add up significantly. Your donation of $7,500 covers a full squad (2 teams) on the road for a weekend, including the bus driver! (fully tax-deductible)

$10,000

Team Travel

Our biggest expense each year is travel! In the past we have not been able to compete against some of our biggest rivals in college rugby due to this fact. Taking 2 teams to Utah, Arizona, Washington or the East coast adds up every year. We want to play against the best teams in the country and some of those teams are far and wide. $10,000 contribution to the program allows us to take 2 teams on these long road weekends against BYU, Penn State, Army or Central Washington that we have not been able to do in recent years! To be the best, you have to consistently play against the best! Especially with BIG10 conference moves potentially on the horizon!! (fully tax-deductible)
