USA Hosts Doubleheader in SLC

[thunderchicken9]

USA Rugby officially announced that Saturday, November 8th, a USA Select XV side will face the New Zealand Heartland side in a match preceding the USA Eagles' contest with Uruguay. The US has not won an international match since its defeat of Uruguay in 2006 in a World Cup Qualifier. Hopefully ESPN will continue its recent form and televise at least the Eagles' match live on one of its networks. Unfortunately from a $$$$ standpoint, the matches in Salt Lake City, Utah, will have to compete with college football for a national television audience. The event will take place in the new SLC soccer stadium, with very affordable ticket prices. Hopefully the New Zealand side will make a few more stops in the US, namely in Northern California... I seem to remember hearing a rumor of that a couple months ago.. anywho; for a complete article, visit http://www.usarugby.org

Thanks for the heads up TC. I checked the site and noticed the article about this movie

Forever Strong The Movie

Hope it gets the right response over there. Hope they release it over here too.

Our Fresno club has been trying to promote the movie -along with the sport of rugby- here for about a month. So far theater owners have welcomed our business, but are opposed to our promoting of "Fresno Rugby" in their theaters.. We haven't given up on a "Rugby Night at the Movies" though - it should be a nice team event for the start of our season. Hopefully clubs across the country will do the same!! Hope you get the movie too!!! It looks pretty darn good!
