Valkyries U19 Girls Rugby Team from North Penn, a National Finalist in Penn Mutual Life Insurance Rugby Spirit Contest, needs your votes
15 as 1
Hello,
I wanted to inform you of a wonderful group of girls, the Valkyries, a high-school rugby team in the North Penn area. With the help of their coaches, Jesse Richter and Chris Bancroft, they recently entered a Rugby Spirit Video Contest hosted by Penn Mutual Insurance Company. This contest was open nationally to all rugby teams up until the collegiate level. Last weekend, they were informed of being one of the top 10 finalists. They are going against tough competition. Here is a link to their video where you can vote: http://pennmutual.appbuilder.spredfast.com/fbcontests/showentry/Show-Your-Rugby-Spirit-1/472898/472898. As an FYI, unfortunately, the vote button doesn’t work on internet explorer but does on other browsers and on the desktop version of facebook. They have the opportunity to win up to $5,000 worth of rugby equipment or merchandise. You can vote everyday until the end of the contest on April 27.
They currently use an old, torn scrum sled, which is barely held together by duct tape, to practice . Please help this small, non-profit, local team of inspirational young ladies get newer, safer equipment, they truly need and deserve.
