CWRFC Runs the Ragnar
Chicago Women's Rugby Football Club will be sending 12 of our players to run 200 miles from Madison, WI back home to Chicago for the Ragnar Relay on June 10. Please consider supporting our team by pledging your CWRFC player $1 per mile they run (although any pledge amount is greatly appreciated!) 50% of all pledges will benefit Girls in the Game, an organization that helps young women in the Chicago area develop not only as athletes but as individuals.
We are a group of strong, smart women; students, teachers, nurses, doctors, engineers, lawyers, farmers and more. We take both our rugby and our fun seriously. Founded in 1976, we play Division I club rugby as part of CARFU and the Midwest RFU.

Our 12 runners will be running to benefit our club but also to benefit the young women who participate in Girls in the Game. For many of our players, rugby was what helped us become the individuals that we are today. Teaching us companionship, work ethic, respect, how to work as a team, sportsmanship and so much more! This is why we have chosen to donate half of what we raise to Girls in the Game.
