The Miami Sharks are out of Major League Rugby. Multiple sources with knowledge of the situation have confirmed that the team informed players this morning they would not be taking part in the 2026 campaign. It’s a crippling blow to MLR, who have also watched founding members NOLA pull the plug and its two Californian franchises merge in recent days.

I understand Miami’s withdrawal was confirmed on Tuesday, after an initial ask to withdraw just for 2026 and potentially re-enter in 2027 was rejected by other owners. NOLA and Miami could re-apply for entry in the future.

    Rumors still abound that Utah Warriors are looking for investors, so this may not be the end of the league's contraction.
