Empower and Transform Lives Through Rugby: ANGELS

Donation protected
Greetings from the heart of San Miguel de Allende, where the San Miguel Rugby Club stands as a beacon of sporting passion and community spirit. Today, we invite you to be part of an inspiring journey – a journey that extends beyond the rugby field and into the lives of the young and aspiring players in our community.

Since our inception in 2012, our club has grown into a competitive and communal pillar within the Federación Mexicana de Rugby Union (FMRU). Our teams, encompassing Men, Women, and Youth, have not only participated in FMRU competitions but have also made significant strides at regional and national levels. Our pride swells in sharing that five of our girls have played for the under-19 Guanajuato state rugby team, achieving third place in the National Olympics in Guadalajara. Further testament to our excellence, four of our girls have tried out for the Mexican National Team, with two being selected, and one proudly representing Mexico in the National 7's team globally for three years.

Our dedication to rugby goes beyond competitive success. We’ve launched initiatives like a free youth rugby program and a social service program, positively impacting hundreds directly and thousands more indirectly in San Miguel. These initiatives aim not just to teach rugby but to instill values, build character, and create opportunities for growth and learning.
As we strive to become the premier rugby club in Guanajuato, we face the reality of financial constraints. Currently self-funded, without state or local government support, our challenges affect our players, including those with National Team aspirations, who face limited funding for their pursuits. This is where your support becomes pivotal. By partnering with us, you enable deserving players to access resources essential for realizing their potential, both on and off the field.

Your contribution is more than just a donation; it's an investment in the future of these young athletes. For many of our players, rugby is a pathway to personal growth, discipline, and a sense of belonging. It's a sport that teaches them to face challenges with determination and to embrace teamwork in every aspect of life. By sponsoring our club, you provide much-needed support for field preparations, equipment, official payments, and league dues. More importantly, you become part of a movement that fosters hope, encouragement, and the possibility of a brighter future for young athletes.

Join us in this transformative journey. Your support isn’t just sponsorship; it’s an investment in the lives of young athletes, empowering them to chase their dreams and succeed in life’s larger game. Be a part of our story—a story of growth, resilience, and the unifying spirit of rugby. Together, let’s unlock the potential of these aspiring stars and build a legacy of excellence and community spirit at the San Miguel Rugby Club.
