Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rugby union is a popular sport in Italy. The sport is thought to have been introduced to the country in the early 1900s, with an organisational committee being established in 1911. The Super 10 competition is the main club rugby competition in the country, although clubs also participate in Europe''s Heineken Cup. Italy compete annually in the Six Nations Championship, and have competed at the Rugby World Cup. Italy is classified as a tier one nation by the International Rugby Board. The governing body of Italian rugby union is the Federazione Italiana Rugby (FIR). An original organisational committee was established in 1911, although it was in 1928 when the body became the FIR, and in 1987, they joined the International Rugby Board. In 1934 the FIR became founding members of the Federation Internationale de Rugby Amateur.
