Answer
Mike,

Yes, I know what Wayne is doing.

My intent is to develop something independent with the twin focus of developing an IMA-E recognition for support and provide a system to evaluate players for the All Army team.

Two immediate things are to develop a framework composed of senior players that will establish a creditable organization.  This would be an executive committee that would consist of players such as you, Chuck and Bart Randell from Stuttgart, Ash, Wasson, Dave McNaughton, IMA-E Rugby coordinator Vance Penn.

This second would be to establish a perhaps two trial camps on the line of tournaments where players just show up and are placed in positions that they would like to be evaluated in.

I will send you my email address through another means.
