History
The Capital Rugby Union (CRU) was formed in Fall 2013 from the consolidation of the Virginia Rugby Union and Potomac Rugby Union, both formerly part of the Mid-Atlantic Rugby Football Union.[2] In November 2019, the CRU partnered with Old Glory DC to begin creation of a cohesive player development for the Mid-Atlantic region.[3]
