The Disciplinary process for members of USA Rugby is developed to keep the game and its operations safe, consistent and fair. The policies and procedures of USA Rugby’s Disciplinary committees, appellate committees and grievance process are developed in partnership with World Rugby policy and US Olympic Committee policy.

For more information on the USA Rugby disciplinary process or the disciplinary process of one of USA Rugby’s Geographic Unions, College Conferences or State Rugby Organizations, please contact Kurt Weaver.
