Halifax Ladies needs you!
We are fundraising for our travel expenses throughout the 2024/25 season. Although the women’s game is rapidly progressing the lack of Women’s teams in the North means we have a lot of travelling to do. As an amateur Women’s rugby team we receive minimal funding and have to pay for the majority of our travel through fundraising and sponsorship.
We have been fortunate this season to have four teams in our league a little closer to home, however when I say closer, our nearest opponent is an 80 Mile round trip.
Let’s run through some figures!
- Chester Devas 144 Miles
- Didsbury Toc 94 Miles
- Trafford MV 82 Miles
- Broughton Park 102 Miles
- Peterlee and Hordon 206 Miles
- Keswick 214 Miles
- Carlisle 218 Miles
That’s a total of 1060 Miles to play the seven teams in our league. This doesn’t include Cup matches we have already attended…
- Keswick 214 Miles
- Hull Ionians 122 Miles
- Driffield 148 Miles
So in total for the season we will be traveling 1544 Miles!
Each coach trip costs between £900-£1000. We need to raise a minimum of £3600-£4000 to cover just the four trips over 200 miles!
Which brings us to the fund raiser.. a total of 1544 miles to travel throughout the season so as a team on Sunday 16th March we will be collaborating with BIG BOX GYM Huddersfield and cycling 1544 miles throughout the day.
Join us as we pedal, push and power through, every mile counts and we need your support!
