[edit] Redirect Issue

I was a bit hesitant to create the redirect United States rugby, however USA Rugby is simply the name for the US governing body of rugby union, and "United States rugby" links to an article about rugby union in the US. Granted, there could be some confusion and it'd be great to find a way to alleviate some of the confusion. Hoopydink 01:23, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Governing Bodies

Should we make a seperate article for the governing bodies within USA Rugby? It seems a bit silly to have the big section in this article. If there are no objections, I'll go ahead and create a new article in the upcoming days and try to format it in such a way that it's consistent with some of the other area unions within a nation's rugby union. I'll also keep the section, perhaps summarise the governing structure within USA Rugby and then link to the main article. hoopydinkConas tá tú? 06:57, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

No reason not to. There are precedents the IRFU's four branches each has its own article as do the state union of the ARU.GordyB 21:36, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Sounds good. I'll start individual articles for each of the TAU's (there are seven) in the upcoming days hoopydinkConas tá tú? 03:09, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
