My name is James Deeley and I’d like to welcome you to the North American Rugby Database (NARugbyDB/NARDB)! The aim of this site is to be your ‘one-stop shop’ for professional rugby in North America, providing news, statistics, and insights into your favourite Leagues, players, and teams. This site was born out of the ‘MLRStats’ social stream on instagram (@MLRStats) and on Twitter/X (via my personal account, @JamDelay).
At present NARDB specializes in Major League Rugby (MLR) content as it is the most high-profile professional league in North America, and as you can see, this site is still very basic. As this site grows I hope to be able to cover additional professional leagues/teams across the continent and possibly also expand into covering National Teams/tournaments, but for the time being I have my plate full with covering MLR.
How To Use This Site
This site can be used as a tool to find and/or collate data about current and past MLR players, teams, and results. If you like to search for players, you can do so. If you like to view match reports of the most recent MLR games, you can do so. If you like to trawl through the archive to find a gem, you can do so!
Here are a couple of useful links to get you started:
– Latest MLR Season
– Latest MLR Collegiate Draft

The purpose of this site is to provide accessibility to the professional game in North America, and keep rugby fans engaged with the facts, figures, and records of North America’s top leagues. To get started, use the search bar below or in the top right, or navigate using the tabs along the top of this site. Enjoy!
