BC Rugby is proud to announce a new partnership with TRAXX, Western Canada’s leading coachline operator, offering BC Rugby Clubs and Members exclusive discounts on team coach travel across British Columbia and beyond.

With TRAXX as our Preferred Coachline Partner, BC Rugby Clubs and registered Members will have access to exclusive discounted rates on TRAXX services, including team travel for Club fixture, tours, and BC Rugby events such as the Kamloops 7s and Vancouver Sevens Invitational. The offer will help alleviate the financial and logistical challenges associated with long-distance travel: a key factor in ensuring accessibility and participation across BC’s geographically vast rugby community.

This new partnership underscores both organisations’ commitment to community connection, accessibility, and supporting grassroots sport across the province.

Founded in 1934, TRAXX Coachlines has a long-standing reputation for excellence, comfort, and safety in transportation – values that align perfectly with BC Rugby’s mission to foster the safest, most vibrant, and inclusive rugby community in Canada. With a fleet of modern coaches and a team dedicated to delivering exceptional travel experiences, TRAXX Coachlines has become synonymous with reliability for sport teams, schools, and organisations across Western Canada.

This partnership joins a growing network of collaborations between BC Rugby and leading Canadian companies that share a vision for community impact and sporting excellence.

BC Rugby Chief Executive Officer, Matthew Carter, expressed excitement about the collaboration:

Partnering with TRAXX Coachlines not only supports our Members’ logistical needs but also connects them with a trusted, community-oriented partner. This collaboration will help our Clubs focus on what truly matters: building great rugby experiences.”

In a joint statement from TRAXX co-COO’s, Lonie Bartel, and Jason Bryant said:

“We’re thrilled to be moving forward with this partnership between BC Rugby and TRAXX. Making travel easier and more affordable for the clubs and members is a game-changer for rugby in British Columbia. Our commitment to safety, comfort, community and our pursuit of excellence aligns perfectly with the values of BC Rugby, and together, we’re helping teams focus on what matters most—building unforgettable rugby experiences. This collaboration is a fantastic step forward for accessibility and participation across our province, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead.”
