Congratulations to the Chicago Hounds

Congratulations to the Chicago Hounds on completing one of the most memorable seasons in Major League Rugby history.

An undefeated season, a home Championship Final and a deserved league title created a fitting finale for another year of growth for professional rugby in North America.

Thank you to the MLR community

A project of this scale is only possible through collaboration.

Thank you to the Major League Rugby leadership team, club executives, players, officials, partners, venues and everyone who trusted OS Studios throughout the season.

Most importantly, thank you to the incredible production crews behind every broadcast. The camera operators, directors, producers, replay operators, graphics teams, engineers, audio specialists and production managers who travelled across the continent made every match possible.

(And yes, we’re still convinced Major League Rugby has the best referee shirts in the sport.)

As the season comes to a close, we’re proud of what was accomplished together and excited for what’s ahead.
