Our Mission

The mission of Colorado Rush RFC  is to provide an opportunity for people in the Greater Denver LGBTQIA+ Community and allies to play rugby on a competitive level. Through practices, socials, matches, fitness programs, fundraising, and recruitment events, the Rush strives to promote awareness and respect for LGBTQIA+ people in contact sports, as well as to strengthen and promote positive self-image and community building.  

Moreover, the Rush recognizes the historical and systematic oppression of gay men, people of color, and queer people. By providing an inclusive and affirming space for the individual growth of its members, the Colorado Rush RFC hopes to perpetually dismantle oppression and negative stereotypes in competitive rugby.
