National governing body for the sport of rugby union in the United States
the rugby union governing body
USA Rugby (formally the United States of America Rugby Football Union, Ltd.) is the national governing body for the sport of rugby union in the United States. Its role is to achieve and maintain “high levels of quality in all aspects of rugby." USA Rugby is responsible for the promotion and development of the sport in the U. S., and promotion of U. S. international participation. USA Rugby was founded in 1975 as the United States of America Rugby Football Union, and it organized the first U. S. national team match in 1976. Today, USA Rugby has over 130,000 members, the largest segment being college rugby with over 32,000 members. USA Rugby oversees 1,200 high school teams, 900 college teams, 700 senior club teams, and 400 youth teams. It administers all United States national teams: senior men's and women's teams, sevens teams for both men and women, and under 20 national teams for both sexes. The organization also sponsors college rugby for both sexes, although since the 2010–11 academic year the NCAA has designated women's rugby an emerging varsity sport. USA Rugby is governed by an 11 member Board of Directors and four National Councils across Youth & High School, College, Senior Club and International Athlete, and its CEO is Ross Young. It is a member of World Rugby through membership with Rugby Americas North, and a member of the United States Olympic Committee. The headquarters for USA Rugby is located in Glendale, Colorado.
История
Мужская сборная США, "Орлы", выиграла золотые медали в олимпийском регби в 1920 и 1924 годах. После этого регби в США переживало период стагнации, в то время как в других частях мира продолжало развиваться. Начиная с 1960-х и продолжаясь в 1970-х годах, регби-унион пережил ренессанс в США. Это создало потребность в национальном руководящем органе, представляющем Соединенные Штаты. 7 июня 1975 года четыре территориальные организации (Тихоокеанское побережье, Запад, Средний Запад и Восток) собрались в Чикаго, штат Иллинойс, и образовали Союз регби Соединенных Штатов Америки (ныне известный как USA Rugby). USA Rugby провела свой первый матч национальной сборной 31 января 1976 года против Австралии в Анахайме, Калифорния, который Австралия выиграла со счетом 24–12. В 1993 году Южнокалифорнийский RFU, местный союз Тихоокеанского побережья RFU, подал заявку на получение статуса отдельной территории. Это послужило стимулом для других организаций по всей стране поступить аналогичным образом, что изменило структуру USA Rugby, которая теперь включает семь территорий (Тихоокеанскую, Южную Калифорнию, Западную, Среднезападную, Южную, Северо-Восточную и Среднеатлантическую). USA Rugby в течение нескольких лет добивалась участия в Мировой серии IRB по регби-7. В итоге организация получила право на проведение ежегодного турнира USA Sevens, который стартовал в 2004 году в Лос-Анджелесе. Летом 2006 года турнир был перенесен в парк Petco в Сан-Диего. С 2010 года турнир ежегодно проводится на стадионе Сэма Бойда в Лас-Вегасе и транслируется в прямом эфире на канале NBC. USA Rugby является одним из основателей Музея спорта Америки, присоединившись к более чем 50 другим спортивным залам славы, национальным федерациям, музеям и другим организациям по всей Северной Америке, чтобы отметить историю, величие и значение спорта в американской культуре. Открытый в Нью-Йорке 7 мая 2008 года, Музей спорта Америки представляет регби США в своей галерее Hall of Halls в знак признательности за поддержку создания первого в стране музея, посвященного всем видам спорта. В 2014 году USA Rugby создала Rugby International Marketing – коммерческую компанию, отвечающую за продвижение регби.
The U. S. men's national team, the Eagles, won the Gold Medal in Olympic rugby in 1920 and 1924. After that time, rugby in the U. S. stagnated while continuing to grow in other parts of the world. Beginning in the 1960s and continuing through the 1970s, the sport of rugby union enjoyed a renaissance in the US. This created the need for a national governing body to represent the United States. On June 7, 1975, four territorial organizations (Pacific Coast, West, Midwest, and East) gathered in Chicago, Illinois, and formed the United States of America Rugby Football Union (now known as USA Rugby). USA Rugby then fielded its first national team on January 31, 1976, in a match against Australia in Anaheim, California, which Australia won, 24–12. In 1993, the Southern California RFU, a local area union of the Pacific Coast RFU, applied to become a separate territory. This was an impetus for others around the country to do the same, changing the make up of USA Rugby, which now has seven territories (Pacific, Southern California, West, Midwest, South, Northeastern, and Mid Atlantic). USA Rugby lobbied for several years for participation in the IRB Sevens World Series. It was finally awarded the annual USA Sevens tournament, beginning in 2004 with Los Angeles as the venue for the initial USA Sevens tournaments. In summer 2006, the tournament was moved to Petco Park in San Diego. Since 2010, the tournament has been held every year at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas Valley and has been broadcast live on NBC. USA Rugby is a Founding Sports Partner of the Sports Museum of America, joining more than 50 other single sport Halls of Fame, national governing bodies, museums, and other organizations across North America, to celebrate the history, grandeur, and significance of sports in American culture. Opened in New York City on May 7, 2008, the Sports Museum of America showcases USA Rugby in its Hall of Halls Gallery, in return for their support of the creation of the nation's first all sports museum experience. In 2014, USA Rugby created Rugby International Marketing, a for profit company that is responsible for promoting the sport of rugby.
Международное представительство
USA Rugby стала членом Международного совета по регби в 1987 году. Всемирная организация в 1998 году была переименована в Международный совет по регби (IRB), а в 2014 году – во Всемирный регби (World Rugby). USA Rugby не имеет права голоса в 28-членном Исполнительном совете World Rugby – большинство голосов принадлежит восьми странам-основателям, хотя члены NACRA совместно обладают одним голосом в Исполнительном совете. В декабре 2011 года USA Rugby впервые получила представительство в исполнительном комитете, состоящем из 10 человек. Боб Латам, в качестве председателя Rugby Americas North (RAN; ранее известного как NACRA до 2016 года), представляет RAN в исполнительном комитете. USA Rugby также поддерживает отношения с международными многоспортивными организациями. USA Rugby является членом Олимпийского комитета США и взаимодействует с Международным олимпийским комитетом. USA Rugby также сотрудничает с Панамериканской спортивной организацией, а регби включено в программу Панамериканских игр с 2011 года.
USA Rugby became a member of the International Rugby Football Board in 1987. The worldwide body would become the International Rugby Board (IRB) in 1998 and World Rugby in 2014. USA Rugby does not hold a vote on WR's 28 member Executive Council—the majority of votes are held by the 8 founding nations—although NACRA members collectively hold one vote on the Executive Council. In December 2011, for the first time, USA Rugby placed a representative on the 10 man executive committee. Bob Latham, in his role as chair of Rugby Americas North (RAN; known as NACRA before 2016), represents RAN on the executive committee. USA Rugby also has relationships with international multi sport organizations. USA Rugby is a member of the U. S. Olympic Committee and interacts with the International Olympic Committee. USA Rugby also interacts with the Pan American Sport Organization, and rugby has been a sport at the Pan Am Games since 2011.
Результаты работы совета директоров
На собрании в феврале 2017 года председатель совета директоров Уилл Чанг инициировал голосование о доверии к совету директоров со стороны Конгресса USA Rugby, которое было одобрено результатом 43–1. Стив Льюис, единственный член Конгресса, проголосовавший против доверия к совету, указал на три проблемы: неудовлетворительные результаты RIM, санкционирование соревнования PRO Rugby и чрезмерные расходы отдела высоких достижений. Поскольку финансовое положение RIM продолжало ухудшаться, в августе 2017 года Льюис предложил, по сути, вотум недоверия совету, на этот раз получив семь голосов и примерно такое же количество воздержавшихся. Продукт RIM "The Rugby Channel", который должен был приносить прибыль USA Rugby, завершил 2017 год с убытком в 4,2 миллиона долларов. 31 августа 2020 года суд по делам о банкротстве штата Делавэр утвердил план USA Rugby по погашению долгов по банкротству перед кредиторами в течение пяти лет, начиная со следующего дня, что позволило руководящему органу выйти из процедуры банкротства и перейти в постбанкротный период.
In a February 2017 assembly, Board Chair Will Chang called for a vote of confidence in the board from USA Rugby's Congress, which passed by a vote of 43–1. Steve Lewis, the sole Congress member who voted no confidence in the board, cited three issues — RIM's performance, the sanctioning of the PRO Rugby competition, and overspending by the high performance department. With RIM's financial performance continuing to deteriorate, in August 2017, Lewis proposed what was effectively a vote of no confidence in the board, this time getting seven votes and a similar number of abstentions. RIM's product “The Rugby Channel”, which was supposed to be a money maker for USA Rugby, finished 2017 with $4.2 million in losses for the year. On August 31, 2020, the Delaware Bankruptcy Court approved USA Rugby's plan to reimburse its bankruptcy debts owed to creditors over five years effective the following day, allowing the governing body to exit bankruptcy and enter the post bankruptcy phase.

Это был первый профессиональный турнир по регби в Северной Америке. PRO Rugby провела только сезон 2016 года, после чего прекратила свою деятельность в январе 2017 года. Major League Rugby, еще одно профессиональное соревнование, было основано в конце 2017 года. Оно начало сезон в 2018 году с семью командами, все в США, и расширилось до девяти команд к сезону 2019 года, включая одну новую команду из Канады. В 2020 году ожидалось участие 12 команд, разделенных на восточный и западный дивизионы. Premier Rugby Sevens, профессиональное соревнование по регби-7, получило официальное одобрение в 2021 году и провело два сезона в 2021 и 2022 годах. Главным внутренним соревнованием по женскому регби в США, пока не являющимся профессиональным, является Женская Премьер-лига (WPL), в которой участвуют 10 команд. Лига завершила свой 10-й сезон в 2020 году.
The Professional Rugby Organization, known as PRO Rugby, was an American professional rugby union competition that played in 2016. This was the first professional rugby competition in North America.

It began play in 2018 with seven teams, all in the U. S., and expanded to nine teams for the 2019 season, with one of the new teams in Canada. 2020 was expected to see 12 teams with East and West divisions.
