About Major League Rugby

ABOUT MAJOR LEAGUE RUGBY
Major League Rugby is a professional sports league representing the highest rugby competition in North America. Launched in 2018, the league’s current 11 teams cover each of the four corners in the United States and everywhere in between. Each week, fans encounter a fast, physical and challenging sport, and as the product on the pitch improves, MLR continues to prove that every sports fan is a rugby fan, whether they know it or not.
The league has taken on tremendous growth and interest over the past few seasons, spurred by grassroots initiatives, flourishing franchises and the announcement of the U.S. as the host of the 2031 Men’s Rugby World Cup and 2033 Women’s Rugby World Cup. Eyes across North America and beyond focus on Major League Rugby as the league’s level of competition and talent pool are elevated.
WATCH MLR
MLR gameplay is fast, hard-hitting, and thrilling, a distinctly American interpretation of the international game, leaving fans unable to look away.
MLR matches stream live on ESPN+, with a select number of matches presented on ESPN2. Additionally, fans can stream replays of each match, highlights and rugby content on The Rugby Network, following a 72-hour delay. As part of the agreement, Major League Rugby will be available across Sub-Saharan Africa. MLR matches are available on The Rugby Network for international fans.
