The Northern Rugby Podcast - Episode 3 - Nick Civetta

Darren & Pete chat with USA International Nick Civetta about his rugby career so far and the development of rugby in the USA.

Nick chats to the guys about starting to play rugby in his college days after being a late-comer to the game, and dropping everything to go and chase the rugby dream in Italy. That dream then led him over the England with the Newcastle Falcons, earning him a call to the National side where he has won 2 Americas Rugby Championships, and was also part of the USA team who beat Scotland in 2018 (their first ever win over a Tier 1 Nation in the professional era).

We also discuss Nick heading to Oxford later this year and looking forward to playing varsity rugby, his 2019 World Cup experience with the USA as well as his thoughts on Major League Rugby and how it can be further developed.
