The Canadian University Men’s Rugby Championship (CUMRC) is proud to announce that Lougheed Wealth Management of Raymond James will return as Presenting Sponsor of the 2025 championship, continuing its strong commitment to the growth of university men’s rugby in Canada.
The 2025 Championship will be hosted by École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS Montréal) from November 12 to 16, 2025, bringing together eight university men’s rugby teams from across the country to compete for the McTavish Cup national title.
“As a former player, rugby taught me lessons that have shaped both my personal and professional journey,” said Dave Lougheed, Rugby Canada Hall of Fame member, graduate of Queen’s University, and Portfolio Manager and Wealth Advisor of Lougheed Wealth Management of Raymond James. “We’re honoured to support the CUMRC once again and to help provide a stage for the next generation of Canadian rugby players to shine.”
“As the CUMRC continues to provide opportunities for student-athletes, we’re proud to have Lougheed Wealth Management return as Presenting Sponsor,” said Maria Samson, CUMRC Board Chair. “Their leadership and passion for rugby reflect the very values our tournament is built on: teamwork, resilience, and ambition.”
Founded in 2017, the CUMRC was created to fill the gap in national-level competition for university men’s rugby, with representation from all parts of Canada. The championship supports the growth of the game by increasing student-athlete participation, expanding the number of competitive programs, and driving audience engagement.
