This evening I took an online education course created by the International Rugby Board to raise the awareness of the anti-doping program, the process of athlete drug testing and some interesting facts about the program. I think that all our players, coaches, referees and administrators should take time to take the course. Not only does the course explain the process and what our athletes should be aware of, it also explains the impact of taking banned substances and there reason for being banned in the first place.

With an impressive resume as player, coach and administrator, Nigel David Melville took over as CEO and President of Rugby Operations of USA Rugby, the National Governing Body of the sport in America, in 2006.  In addition to his full time job promoting the sport in the U.S., Melville has launched his own blog, Nigel Melville Direct, to further the discussion and his passion for what it will take to make the U.S. a great rugby playing nation.
