UMRFC Plunges for Special Olympics

This Winter semester, Michigan Rugby participated in the 2021 Polar Plunge for Special Olympics. Each year, the Polar Plunge series challenges thousands of jumpers around the United States to get involved with supporting the Special Olympics here in Michigan. All profits go to sports training for nearly 23,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities.

Because of the coronavirus pandemic, Michigan Rugby registered online and took on a cold-weather challenge — jumping in the freezing Huron River.

Thanks to the amazing work by Logan Przysiecki, our Director of Community Service, as well as Braden Loughnane, our Vice President who raised over $700, along with the coordination with the women’s rugby team, for a total of over $2,251!
