Ben Pinkelman Normalize varsity rugby 15’s across the nation at the High School level, invest heavily in pre-high school rugby development, and capitalize on Major League Rugby to grow interest and show NFL is not the only route for some of our best athletes!!

Ben Pinkelman Earlier exposure to elite competition for the youth.I don’t think the we need a bigger player pool but we def need better broad development at a younger age. Efforts are there, in some regions u8s are having seasons. Unheard of really when we were coming up. Can’t fake experience

Both try’s this weekend were by two players IMO who embody what American rugby is about just grinders who never give up . You can criticize different aspects of the weekend but never these players . 🇺🇸❤️ they played against the best and never gave up end of story .

World Rugby had the chance for introspection. They had the chance to address the refereeing system and the frustration it causes on both sides of the whistle. They missed their chance and sent out a clear message they are incapable of reform.

Saddened to hear of the passing of Kyle Hitt, former Denver Barbarian and University of Northern Colorado standout. An absolute warrior on the pitch. Rest easy, rugger.
