RENEW OR ACTIVATE YOUR USA RUGBY MEMBERSHIP WITH RUGBY XPLORER

There are two separate registrations you must complete for rugby - AYR and Rugby Xplorer.

 

Step #1 - Registering as a player with AYR through SportsEngine.   

 

Step #2 - Renew or create a USA Rugby profile in Rugby Xplorer, and pay for your player's membership. USA Rugby dues are not collected with your AYR registration, and are payable directly to USA Rugby. Players without active RX profiles and unpaid USA Rugby memberships are not roster eligible, and will not be allowed to play on game day. 

 

**ALL** tackle players must create and maintain an active USA Rugby profile in Rugby Xplorer.  Please make sure to go to https://myaccount.rugbyxplorer.com.au/ as soon as possible and complete this vital step. For returning players - enter the user name and password from last season. Click register, find a club, type in Atlanta Youth Rugby and follow the prompts. For new players, enter a user name and password, follow the prompts to activate a profile. Then, click register, find a club, type in Atlanta Youth Rugby, and follow the rest of the registration steps. Your membership will be good through 8/31/2024.

DOWNLOAD THE SPORTSENGINE APP

Players are added to each team's roster frequently, so if you are unable to find your player please be patient. All information about practices, games, and any other event will be posted in the app for you to see. 

FAMILY DISCOUNT, VOLUNTEER REBATE, AND PLAYER REFERRAL REBATE

A family discount of $25 is offered on the second, third, and additional child's registration fee. All entries must be registered at the same time by selecting 'add another child' on this registration form. 

 

Want to volunteer? We would love to have you! It can be anything from jersey washing, team communication, carpool coordination, team socials, coaching, or being a sideline judge. Once your coach confirms you have volunteered, you will be issued a rebate of $25. Limit one volunteer rebate per household.

 

We LOVE referrals! For every player referred that registers, you will receive a $25 rebate. Limit four referral rebates per household.  

SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION

Any player who is in good standing (no rugby suspensions, positive reference from your coach, no outstanding debts to the club) that has financial need may request a scholarship.  These are based on need, and range from 25% - 100% of the registration cost only. **Scholarships do not cover the required USA Rugby membership dues. These are payable in full at the time of renewing or creating a member profile in Rugby Xplorer.** 

IF YOUR RUGGER IS PLAYING FALL 7S

If your player has paid for and is competing in the 2023 Fall 7s season, they do not need to renew  their Rugby Xplorer membership.
