Governing body

The governing body is the Dominican Rugby Federation, known as Fedorugby. It is affiliated to NACRA, the regional governing body for rugby within North America and the Caribbean.[2][3] Fedorugby is not currently a member of World Rugby.

History

Rugby was introduced to the Dominican Republic by French diplomat Jean-Paul Bossuge, vice consul at the time, in 1969.[1] Jean Paul Rugby Club is named after him.[1] Rugby began to grow in the seventies, but went into decline in the early 1990s. As in many other countries, rugby had suffered from lack of Olympic recognition.[1] There was a revival in 1997, and from 1997 to 2000 the Dominican Republic was represented in Trinidad and Tobago's international rugby sevens tournament.[4]

There are rugby clubs in Santo Domingo, San Cristóbal, and La Romana, as well as at San Pedro and Constanza. Rugby is also played in the universities.[4] Santo Domingo has six main clubs: Lions RC, Red Dragons RC, Titanes RC, Pirañas del Caribe RC as well as the university clubs at UNPHU and UASD.[4]
