2023 MLR Season
Once again Rugby Net will carry all non-nationally televised MLR matches and will be the archive location for EVERY MLR match, including those televised FOX.
Other changes for the 2023 season:
1) Rugby United New York has a new name: New York Ironworkers.
2) We have a new expansion team- Welcome the Chicago Hounds!
3) Two teams disqualified at the end of the last MLR season have been removed for 2023- Austin Gilgronis and LA Giltinis.
4) The Utah Warriors will produce a radio broadcast for all but their opening match in 2023.
