MLR will operate with twelve teams in 2023, compared to the original seven in 2018. The teams will play in Los Angeles or Dallas. There is also the possibility of another team in Canada.

Major League Rugby will have two conferences. Each conference will feature the top three teams in their division, and the winners of those conferences will meet in conference finals. Each conference will have one team. They will qualify for the playoffs if they win both conference finals.

The United States rugby community was the first to create the league. The league had several bidders including Los Angeles, Vancouver, and Los Angeles. However, the bids have not been accepted. Nevertheless, it is possible that the league will still have three West Coast teams by 2021 and possibly six by 2023.

World Rugby announced the 2031 hosting of the men’s World Cup in America in May. The women's World Cup is scheduled for 2032. This would give the US men’s Eagles one last chance at qualifying for the 2023 World Cup in France.


MLR assisted in the sale of Los Angeles and Austin franchises. We hope to continue the growth and development of the sport at those locations. There is an opportunity to create another franchise in Midwestern United States. While there are no current teams in midwest, MLR has suggested that there could be.

Chicago has been mentioned as a potential Midwestern United States city. The previous owner of the city was a PRO Rugby franchise. He is currently bidding for an MLR franchise. He has a 90-day deadline to fulfill the terms of his application. Major League Rugby accepted his initial application regardless of whether he meets the criteria.

As of 2019, the franchise buy-in price is $4 million. This will cover the league's expenses in the first two years. The league will allow teams to draft players of the folded teams during this time. Around thirty percent will be imported.

2020 is the year of the collegiate draft. After three years of college, players can apply to the collegiate draft. A single table format will be used for the first two seasons of the new league. The league will eventually change to a more complicated schedule. There will be two or three matches against conference opponents, as well as a home and away match against another conference.

Major League Rugby will have a new franchise in Chicago beginning in 2023. It will be the league’s first Midwestern United States club and will create competition for the area. Another possible location for a franchise is Sacramento, the Bay Area and Las Vegas.

It requires speed, agility, and balance.Skiers use special equipment called skis to move across the snow.They also use specially designed boots to grip the surface.
  • Paragliding -- Paragliding works in the same way as parachuting. However, paragliders can fly through the air instead falling to ground. Paragliders are usually launched from mountainsides. They then use ropes to steer the plane. If the pilot wants to land, he pulls the rope attached to his harness. The parachute opens automatically.
  • Surfing -- Surfers travel along the ocean floor on waves of water. Surfers usually stand straight while surfing. They hold onto their boards with both of their hands.
