Rugby is currently the fastest growing team sport in the U.S ?

Possibly. It's certainly becoming more popular. USA Rugby now claims that there are now almost a half-millon people playing the game in that country, which (if true) indicates a pretty rapid rate of growth. Three to four times as many as ten years ago, again if the number collected at that time were accurate. But there are so many other games out there, and so many ways of collecting data or measuring "participation". Is it growing quickly? Absolutely. Is it the fastest growing team sport? Who knows?

No, it is lacrosse. Rugby is growing, but the ignorance of people are keeping the pace of growth down.

not really shure if that is true yes it is growing but other sports are growing too Canada and the states have both had a lot of growth in rugby in the last 10 years

If you're really curious. Check the registered player list on Wikipedia. That has total players from all over the world. It is growing? Yes 2500 registered clubs in the US alone.(dollfacerugby on facebook tries to keep track of them all.RugbyUSA has regular updates. Is it the fastest? Hard to say. It is in the top five ..Read it somewhere.can't remember where.
