Story

Support Wales Deaf Rugby Union and Win Big This Christmas! 🎄🏉

Wales Deaf Rugby Union (WDRU) has a proud history of breaking barriers and creating opportunities for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals to participate in rugby at all levels. Since the formation of our men's team in 1999 and our women’s team in 2019, we’ve achieved remarkable success, including being crowned World Deaf Rugby Champions in both 15s and 7s formats.

As a registered charity, we are committed to making rugby accessible for everyone. However, running an international rugby union comes with significant costs, from travel to training and everything in between. Fundraising and sponsorship are essential to supporting our teams and driving forward our mission.

This Christmas, we’re inviting you to join our campaign to raise vital funds for WDRU and get the chance to win some amazing prizes in our Christmas Raffle!
