In December, the USA Rugby Board of Directors announced the assembly of a Task Force to lead reorganization efforts aimed at decentralizing certain resources and operations from the USA Rugby National Office to community organizations. The duty of the Task Force is to fully research and solicit feedback from USA Rugby leadership, Congress, Community Stakeholders and Members on what reorganization from the current structure will best serve the game in this new era.
The purpose of this submission page is to open the door to the community, allowing the Task Force to hear constructive suggestions and opinions from anyone hoping to provide input.
Instructions
The Task Force is operating independent of the USA Rugby National Office and Board of Directors, and accepting submissions via email. You can submit your feedback to taskforce.usarugbyreorg@gmail.com
All submission will be taken in to consideration and amalgamated into general public feedback for the initial proposal for reorganization in late March.
As this pivotal time for American rugby proceeds, the Task Force asks that the community provide their most constructive input across all facets of the game. Adapting to change is important to growth and the collective support of our community is most vital as rugby looks to evolve in 2020.
Please feel free to use the same email address above for any Task Force questions or inquiries.
