On March 6, 2026, Fox News reported that some rugby clubs in the United States are eliminating their women's teams and reassigning players to a new “open” competition category, following recent rule changes by USA Rugby. This follows USA Rugby's announcement on March 1, 2026, of a new eligibility policy, effective February 20, which bans transgender women from competing on women's division teams, reserving that category for players assigned female at birth. Concurrently, the organization created a third competition category, the “Open Division,” to allow trans athletes to continue competing. Previously, on February 20, USA Rugby announced the election of Julie Uhrman and Tom Kelley to its board of directors. Earlier, on January 30, USA Rugby confirmed that Eagles supporter Brian Robinson and his family committed financial support to supplement the USA Women's Eagles match bonus structure.
