The USA Girls U18s and U20s will have a busy summer of action, USA Rugby has announced.
The U18s will play in a festival of shortened matches in Wales in late July, facing off with Netherlands, Scotland, and Wales. The final USA vs Wales match on Saturday, July 27th. The final USA vs Wales match will be a full 70-minute affair and will be broadcast live on RugbyPass TV.
“This opportunity provides a wealth of learning for the players,” said U18 Head Coach Susan Whitwell. “Representing your country in an international competition comes with pressure and learning to handle that pressure takes practice. The festival format allows us to experience a variety of game styles in a short period of time which helps develop game understanding and flexibility of thinking. This is a critical chance for our players to develop their ability to identify, adapt and respond quickly under pressure.”
Donations help fund this tour and Rhinos Rugby is making a donation and also matching all public donations up to $15,000 through its global competition organization, Rugby Tens,
The XV Foundation has again donated funds.
