WRCRA Webinar: Colleges Can Afford You!

The Women’s Rugby Coaches & Referees Association (WRCRA) produces a monthly webinar series. Each session is an hour long and covers a variety of subjects that are relevant to coaches, administrators and referees, or that our members have requested. On May 20 (7:30-8:30 p.m. ET), WRCRA is hosting “Colleges Can Afford You! Demystifying FAFSA, Financial Aid & College Pathways for Rugby Athletes,” led by Karen Fong Donoghue of The Rugger’s Edge and Bowdoin College Women’s Rugby Head Coach Laura Miller. Subscribe here.

Too many talented athletes step away from college rugby because they think it’s financially out of reach. This webinar breaks down the myths and shows families, coaches and program leaders the real opportunities available.

In this fast‑paced session, you’ll learn:

• What FAFSA changes mean for your athletes
• What “need‑blind” admissions actually looks like
• How aid works beyond scholarships
• How to talk about affordability with confidence
• Why rugby athletes have unique advantages in the financial aid process

If you support high school rugby players—coaches, parents, directors, crossover athletes or club leaders—this hour will change how you guide them toward college. Let’s keep athletes in the pipeline and open doors they didn’t know they had.

Subscribe now and help your athletes see what’s possible.
