We are a passionate team behind the "Mixed Ability Rugby Invitational" team (the MARI's), and we believe in the power of sport to break down barriers and bring everyone together. Our international social-inclusive rugby program offers a unique opportunity for players of all backgrounds and abilities to play together, grow, and be part of a close-knit community.

The Story:

Mixed Ability rugby is more than just a sport; it's a movement that celebrates inclusion, respect, and camaraderie. Our Invitational team brings together players from different regions around the world, all sharing the same love for rugby. However, we've noticed that travel costs for players coming from further away pose a significant barrier to participating in our program in the 2025-2026 season.

Why Your Support Matters:

To ensure that everyone, regardless of their location or financial situation, has the chance to be part of our team, we need your help. With this GoFundMe page, we hope to raise at least €4000. This amount will be used entirely to support the travel expenses of our players who have to travel from further away. Your contribution, no matter how small, makes a direct difference in the lives of these athletes and helps us further our inclusive mission.

What You Get (Besides a Warm Feeling):

We are incredibly grateful for every donation we receive. As a token of our appreciation (and a bit of fun), I promise the following: if we reach our goal of €4000, "Dai Vyncky" his beard will be shaved off! You're not only helping our players, but you might also get to see a "new look" for him.

How You Can Help:

* Donate: Every contribution, big or small, is greatly appreciated and brings us closer to our goal. Click the donate button and make a difference!

* Share: Help us spread the word by sharing this GoFundMe page with your friends, family, and network on social media. Together, we can reach more people!

Our Gratitude:

On behalf of the entire Mixed Ability Rugby Invitational team, we want to thank you in advance for your support and your belief in our mission. Together, we can ensure that everyone has the opportunity to experience the power and joy of rugby.
