Jacob Nelson Devoted Rugby Player with ALS

We still haven’t hit our goal of $100,000, so let’s get after it and put the word out on the streets.

Jacob Nelson is battling ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). If you’ve been a part of California/Colorado rugby in the last 20 years you’ve likely crossed paths with Jacob when he was playing for Humboldt State, SFGG, OMBAC, and Glendale or at one of his Tight 5 Sevens tournaments.

ALS is a massively difficult challenge to navigate, and even more so with three children, Aila 10, Buxton 8, and Tadhg 4.

ANY donation amount will make a difference and is gratefully appreciated. Please reach out to all your rugby contacts for a contribution and let’s support Jake the way he’s been holding up scrums all these years.
