Hi everyone! My name is Todd Butler, and I’m raising funds to cover travel and lodging costs so I can officiate at the New York 7s Rugby Tournament during Thanksgiving weekend — a premier rugby sevens event and the biggest tournament in all of New York.

Refereeing rugby isn’t just a passion for me — it’s a commitment to giving back to the game, supporting player safety, and helping grow the sport at all levels. This opportunity to referee at New York 7s is both an honor and a step forward in my referee development pathway, as it brings together top teams and officials from across the country (and beyond).

For this event, travel expenses like flights, lodging, and local transportation are not fully covered. That’s why I’m reaching out for your support — to help make this opportunity possible.

What Your Support Will Cover:

- Travel to and from New York City

- Lodging during the tournament weekend

- Meals and local transportation

Why This Matters:

Your contribution helps me continue representing our Indiana rugby community with integrity, energy, and professionalism — and to keep improving so I can give players the best experience possible on the field. Every bit helps, and your support truly makes a difference.

Thank you for helping make this journey possible — I’ll be proud to represent our community in New York!
