Team USA will take on the No. 3 world-ranked England rugby team on the 4th of July. This will be the Eagles first time returning to the field since Rugby World Cup 2019 in Japan where the teams met and England came out on top 45-7. Current Captain Bryce Campbell scored the USA’s lone try.

This will also be the the first time that USA faces off with England at Twickenham since 1999.

“We’ve had a good few days in England getting the guys back together with a number of productive training sessions under our belts" Head coach Gary Gold said about the match-day 23 he's got set for the Independence Day showdown. "For us, the important thing is to ensure our younger players are exposed to this quality of competition early and often in their playing career. As we look ahead to World Cup qualification against Canada and now two test matches against Ireland, we are confident we will see the experience of these games pay dividends heading into the next two World cup cycles.”
