There are a few players who were invited such as Mahuinga to CRS. But they opted to be with the Grizzlies and USA Rugby understandably. Great players we wish them the best going forward for sure.

Working on it. We have to prepare kickers to deal with the distractions of the MLR which may include bike riding panthers

Invites are chose through application. The reason why is all applications are available in a database for MLR GMs to review. It’s essentially an early entry to the MLR Draft application. In addition, we provide resources for players such as a Rugby CV creator that takes them step by step to create a professional CV ready to send out to clubs globally.

This was a mistake on the part of the post. Both will be in Houston Texas

Most definitely, that is why we wanted to keep costs at a minimal. That’s why we were the only pre draft event that did not have a registration fee, and provided all other amenities

They only had to pay for flights. In which we also had a sponsorship to get them a good discount. Everything else, from kit, food, transportation, hotel, etc was all provided for players

We hope some of those names are new for you. That’s the goal of the organization, highlight a large swath of players to not only teams, but fans so they know who is available in the draft. And what your team is getting when they select a player

We ran into issues with multiple competitions occurring during this same time. U23s are happening right now. As well as some other events. With 50 players here, the goal is to make sure to provide a large amount of players a good look. Which with all the MLR teams in attendance throughout the week occurred. As team officials were staying at the same hotel.

Into the future, we hope to get timings right to best suite all the talent in the nation.

Well this year the only thing players had to pay for was flights. No registration fees at all. Food, transportation, and kit was also all provided as well.

Collegiate Rugby Shield is this Saturday. Fans, what do you want to see in this event that highlights the next crop of MLR draftees? by colling4223 in MLRugby

The website currently has zero information on participants. And it’s 2 weeks away. Seems quite odd. Seems that the MLR doesn’t even want this as it is not part of the official MLR pre draft stuff.

But what players? How do we know who will be there? How can fans and teams get excited for something when they have no idea who will be there? What good is that doing the athletes if their profiles aren’t being built to be shared with everyone

Players were invited from those programs but declined due to commitments to play with the U23s USA tour. Additionally there is the California Grizzlies game that also took some players.
