One of the comments Scott Lawrence kept bringing up in our recent interview with him was “game time.”
It isn’t enough, said the USA Men’s 15s Head Coach, to be on a professional team. You have to actually play. And, really, you have to play 60 to 80 minutes rather than run on for those last 15-20 minutes.

In what has been a very difficult tournament to win, the USA Men's U23s took home the trophy at the 2023 RugbyTown 7s in Glendale, Colo. Sunday.
So close in 2022, when they lost to Ramblin' Jesters in the final, the U23s brought back the bulk of that squad to try to go one better.
The news that USA Rugby's dues are going up wasn't that surprising.
After all, we got a heads up from the Board a couple of months ago.
