USA RWC Home Bases Announced

Rugby World Cup LTD. and the IRB announced the team training bases for the 2015 Men's Rugby World Cup.

The USA, which qualified in March, will be based in Haileybury School in Hertfordshire, in the early part of the tournament.

“We are extremely excited that Haileybury will be part of Rugby World Cup 2015 and we look forward to welcoming the Argentina and USA teams next year," said former Wales captain Michael Owen, who is the Director of Rugby for the school. “We have a rich rugby heritage and being chosen to be a team base for the tournament is an honour for our College."

Then the Eagles will move on to Leeds Trinity University in Yorkshire, Portsmouth Royal Navy Rugby Union, and Hartpury College in Gloucestershire.

Should the USA make the knockout rounds, they will have another base of operations.

The pool matches for the USA are as follows;

Sept 20 v. Samoa at Brighton Community Stadium
Sept 27 v. Scotland at Elland Road, Leeds
October 7 v. South Africa at Olympic Stadium, London
October 11 v. Japan at Kingsholm, Gloucester
