USA Rugby is proud to partner with Premier International Tours to provide premier rugby travel experiences for international player and fan rugby tours. Premier International Tours has been organizing international rugby and soccer tours for North American teams to Europe and South America for over 30 years.

Premier International Tours customizes the travel experience for teams, players and fans while providing first class accommodations and travel arrangements. The partnership with USA Rugby is currently offering tours on this year’s Sevens World Series Circuit through the 2015 World Cup in England.

“We believe that rugby tours are too important to settle for a one size fits all package. We assign a local representative to host your team and welcome you as a guest - a rugby friend from North America – not a tourist,” said Premier International Tours President Loek van Zijl.

Through this exciting partnership, USA Rugby is thrilled to help our members and fans discover how a love for rugby unites the world!
