Top DIAA Players of the Fall: Flyhalf and Scrumhalf

Kentucky flyhalf Jack Phillips. Broadgauge Media.

Now we're at halfback with scrumhalf and flyhalf.

This is an important category—OK all of them are important—in that in the USA we're still working on getting US-raised flyhalves and scrumhalves. Maybe three or four of these will be in that pathway.

We have 14 #9s and 18 #10s in this list.


The GRR Top Players are brought to you by Next Phase Rugby, a USA-made and maintained app that connects college rugby programs and HS rugby players. It's a great way for college programs to find players they wouldn't know otherwise, and a great way for high schoolers to create and finalize their best college prospects. Go to nextphaserugby.com to download the app.
