International Rugby News
Iowa State University Head Coach Anthony Frein used hard work, flexibility, communication, and an attention to detail to get his ISU Cyclones college team to play games during the COVID Pandemic.
World Rugby has announced the return of the Sevens World Series with a reduced XX-tournament schedule starting in May but mostly being played after the Olympics.
On March 2 World Rugby announced it was recommending the postponement of the 2021 Rugby World Cup women's 15s tournament.
The recommendation will be looked at by the Rugby World Cup Board and the World Rugby Executive Committee in meetings next week, March 8 and 9.
We saw a few firsts this week with American rugby players playing overseas.
Among those first was a first run-on for Nafi Maafu for USA Perpignan in France's Pro D2. Perpignan won 24-20 over Valence Romans.
Chris Lippert was something of a trailblazer for the USA team.
