The Blackwell Challenge is BACK!

A few years ago, Wichita Rugby Alumnus Tim Blackwell threw out a challenge and pledged to match donations made to the Wichita Rugby Foundation dollar-for-dollar up to $20,000. This exceptional effort kick-started a groundswell of support and motivated dozens of other supporters of Wichita Rugby to “get off the sidelines” and begin donating their resources to the benefit of rugby in our area.

In light of the recent announcement by the WRF Board that they have secured the Wichita Area Rugby (W.A.R.) Complex to be the new home for our clubs for decades to come, Mr. Blackwell has decided that it is time to renew this challenge.

Don’t wait – between now and the end of this year, you can double your impact to this worthy cause by meeting the Blackwell Challenge and getting your donation doubled!

Interested in participating? Contact Brent at (316) 519-9992 or [email protected] to get signed up.
