The Collegiate Rugby Shield provides collegiate players an opportunity to showcase their skills in front of MLR coaches and scouts in preparation for the Draft.”
The game is made up of two teams of 25 players from colleges around the country and they will play in the All-Star game on Saturday night as they look to show off their skill in hopes of getting drafted to a Major League Rugby team.
