The New Zealand Rugby Union has announced that the All Blacks will play the United States in Washington in October.

The game will be played before the All Blacks travel on their end-of-year tour in Europe. It will be the All Blacks first game in the United States since 2016.

The game is designed to grow interest in the sport amongst Americans.

America has dreams of hosting the Rugby World Cup in the future.

The USA Eagles is the name of the United States rugby team. They are busy attempting to qualify for the the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France.

The October test match will be advertised as the 1874 Cup, which is a reference to the first account of organised rugby being played in the United States.
