USA Rugby is the national governing body. USA Club Rugby runs the senior-club national championship pathway, while geographic unions administer the local competitions that qualify teams. This is a multi-owner system rather than one nationwide club league.
Permanent leagues, seasonal phases and parallel competitions stay separate so a cup or playoff is not mistaken for a league tier.
Geographic ownership
USA Rugby lists 19 geographic-union contacts, while USA Club Rugby's XVs map assigns 16 owners to four Super Regions. Alaska, Hawaii and Montana are not assigned on that map, and the Midwest labels and local-area totals differ between the two organisations.
Local owners remain separate
Geographic unions run different local competitions and qualification routes. This page does not combine them into one national table or guess missing assignments from geography.
National championship pathway
Eligible senior XV sides progress through local competitions and four Super Regions to the USA Club Rugby XVs National Championships. The national weekend is a qualification event, not a promotion-and-relegation pyramid.
Five national divisions
The 2026 event scheduled separate men's Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3 competitions and separate women's Division 1 and Division 2 competitions, each with four entries and its own semifinals and final.
Senior men's XV
Men's Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3 advance to separate national semifinals and finals. Men's Division 4 can exist regionally but does not advance to this national event.
No national movement rule
A national finish does not bring promotion or relegation in a named local division. Each union sets its own rules each season.
Senior women's XV
Women's Division 1 and Division 2 advance to separate national semifinals and finals. Women's Division 3 can exist regionally but does not advance to this national event.
Separate participant identities
A women's team name is not merged with a men's side or turned into a club record unless the union says which club each team belongs to.
