GRR: USA Rugby
The Coronavirus outbreak and subsequent sequester of people in the USA and the halting of rugby in the foreseeable future has had a huge and negative impact on USA Rugby and the organization's reorganization plans.
Should USA Rugby, D1A, and NSCRO award college rugby players an additional year of eligibility because o the season has been shut down due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak?
Coaches and observers have already put forth that idea, some within hours of hearing that USA Rugby has shut down the season. And there's no gray area here—the college rugby season is over.
World Rugby is launching a Men’s XVs High Performance Combine program in North America.
The first combine will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah from June 21-27.
One of the reasons that D1A Rugby and (separately) USA Rugby are getting tough on teams on eligibility is the Arizona State case.
It's a dicey thing to discuss because a) the Arizona State incident is still in the courts, and b) people don't like to be associated with what happened.
Here's what happened.
The USA Men’s Under-20s finally has a real series of games to play, and is also getting a helping hand from an unlikely source.
The U20s will join five other national U20s teams in a tournament in Montevideo, Uruguay. This U20 Americas Rugby Championship is supposed to be an annual event that gives all of these countries a chance to expose young talent to international play.
