2021 Major League Rugby Week 1 National TV & Streaming Schedule

  

  

Farewell ESPN. We hardly knew thee. Major League Rugby begins 2021 with 2 national television partners- Fox Sports and CBS, and a new streaming partner- RugbyPass. 

RugbyPass and MLR have teamed up to create a new free streaming platform- The Rugby Network. Rugby Net will carry all non-nationally televised MLR matches and will be the archive location for EVERY MLR match, including those televised by CBS & FOX. 

Other changes for this season: We have addition by subtraction in full effect. We bid farewell to the Colorado Raptors. However we also add LA Giltins, keeping the league overall at 12 teams.
