High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rugby union in Norway is a minor but growing sport. For a number of years, Norway was arguably the most northerly country playing the sport, and boasted the world's most northerly rugby club, Oslo RFC. The Norwegian Union was founded in 1985, and joined the IRFB in 1993. Norway was the last of the three Scandinavian countries to take up rugby. However, amongst the Nordic Countries, it is by no means the weakest, as it is a more recent introduction to Finland, and has no presence in the other three nations. A major problem though, is the climate, which means that many pitches may be under snow for large parts of the year. For many years, Oslo RFC was the most northerly rugby club in the world. During the mid-1980s, Oslo RFC's nearest opposition in Norway was Stavanger, a round trip of 685 miles. Their nearest club was Karlstad RFC in Sweden a round trip of 310 miles.
