US Rugby Hall of Fame Event Adjusts to Rescheduled Eagles Game
With the shifting of the USA vs Stade Toulousain from Sunday, September 17 to Saturday, September 16 the US Rugby Foundation has shifted the timing of its US Rugby Hall of Fame event.
Originally planned for Saturday night, the induction proceedings will now begin at 2PM with a pre-ceremony reception, a lunch at 3PM, and the induction ceremonies themselves from 4PM to 6PM.
This provides everyone at the event time to attend the USA game later that evening.

US Rugby Foundation President Brian Vizard announced the changes today.
In his communication to those attending and supporters of the Foundation, Vizard said the changes were also made so that the inductees could be recognized at halftime of the game.
"The decision to change the start time was not made lightly as we know that many of you had already made your travel plans. We also made sure that all of the honorees were available at this new time before we considered a revised schedule. If you are unable to attend because of this new time, please reply to this email and we will provide you with a full refund," Vizard said.

The US Rugby Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be held at Venue 6SIX9 in Salt Lake City, which is the same venue as always. There remains a possibility that might change. But for now the venue remains Venue 6SIX9; it's just the timing that has shifted.
