Can I register several .RUGBY names for services or campaigns?

Yes. Prepare multiple union, club, team, competition, coach, product, publication, or campaign names in the bulk domain section to compare availability and organize registrations.

Can an agency or platform automate .RUGBY domain operations?

NiceNIC provides a domain reseller API for eligible agencies and platforms that need automated registration, renewal, transfer, and management workflows.

What should a .RUGBY website publish?

Publish clear ownership, team or union relationships, fixtures, results, venues, ticket terms, coaching credentials, safeguarding information, update dates, and contact routes.

Secure the .RUGBY name before someone else does.
