Then rugby became an Olympic sport and thus, more acceptable to the DoD as an official sport, the responsibility for Service rugby was transitioned to the Armed Forces Sports Committee. USA Rugby continued with a rugby service member on their board who in 2001 was Mike Malone. At some point during the transition, USA Rugby ceased funding the Combined Services Committee. Air Force's Larry Grant was our Combined Services representative from 2001-2002. USA rugby eventually concluded that the Armed Forces Sports Council should have that board seat, rather than someone from the Combined Services Committee. This decision dissolved the Combined Services Committee in 2002 essentially dissolved the Combined Services Committee and the AFSC took over managing the DoD rugby programs.
