GRR: Major League Rugby
The Major League Rugby Draft is coming back, and will be held Thursday, August 19.
The Draft received a great deal of attention last year as it was instituted, but its execution was iffy and usefulness debatable.
The NOLA Gold MLR team is holding a series of three-day High-Performance Developmental Camps focusing on skill improvement and core fundamentals.
Players who attend will be coached by MLR coaches, former national team staff, and current MLR players.
Old Glory DC lost a hard-fought match against New York in D’montae Noble’s fourth match of the 2021 MLR season, but for Noble it was a match of firsts.
Late in the first of half the match Noble scored his first try as a professional rugby player; we caught up with the rookie Old Glory wing to discuss how the former West End, Atlantis, and Kutztown star is adjusting.
The Los Angeles Major League Rugby, the LA Giltinis, will be holding a College Rugby Showcase for high school and U23 rugby players leading up to Saturday's game against the San Diego Legion.
Players who are as young as freshman in high school up to U23 are invited to attend.
Each week Major League Rugby highlights the best players with their Top XV of the week.
Former Life University standout (and before that Woodlands Youth Rugby) Conner Mooneyham, who was the #1 pick in the 2020 draft, continued his stellar play for the Austin Gilgronis earning his third week as a GEICO XV player.
