Rugby Union Fan Zone

Rugby union, widely known simply as rugby, is a full contact team sport that originated in England in the first half of the 19th century. One of the two codes of rugby football, it is based on running with the ball in hand. In its most common form, a game is played between two teams of 15 players using an oval-shaped ball on a rectangular field called a pitch. The field has H-shaped goalposts at both ends.

Rugby union is a popular sport around the world, played by male and female players of all ages. Rules do not differ between the sexes. In 2014, there were more than 6 million people playing worldwide, of whom 2.36 million were registered players. World Rugby, previously called the International Rugby Football Board (IRFB) and the International Rugby Board (IRB), has been the governing body for rugby union since 1886, and currently has 101 countries as full members and 18 associate members.

WORLD RUGBY


World Rugby is the world governing body for the sport of rugby union. World Rugby organises the Rugby World Cup every four years, the sport’s most recognised and most profitable competition. It also organises a number of other international rugby competitions, such as the World Rugby Sevens Series, the Rugby World Cup Sevens, the World Under 20 Championship, and the Pacific Nations Cup.

World Rugby’s headquarters are in Dublin, Ireland. Its membership now comprises 120 national unions. Each member country must also be a member of one of the six regional unions into which the world is divided: Africa, Americas North, Asia, Europe, South America and Oceania.

World Rugby was founded as the International Rugby Football Board (IRFB) in 1886 by Scotland, Wales and Ireland, with England joining in 1890. Australia, New Zealand and South Africa became full members in 1949. France became a member in 1978 and a further eighty members joined from 1987 to 1999. The body was renamed the International Rugby Board (IRB) in 1998, and took up its current name of World Rugby in November 2014.

In 2009, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted to include rugby sevens in the 2016 Summer Olympics. World Rugby gained membership of the Association of Summer Olympic International Federations (ASOIF) in 2010.

HISTORY OF RUGBY IN EAST AFRICA

In dealing with the story of the Rugby Football Union of Kenya, it is of interest to record some of the very little that I known of the earliest days of rugby in East Africa.

The first known match to be played was at Mombasa in 1909 between the Officials and Settlers, and known that matches in Nairobi used to be played at Nairobi Club. The Royal navy played a very big part in the early days of rugby in these parts and we have ships: 1992 H.M.S Cairo; 1925 H.M.S Chatham; 1926, 1927, 1928 and 1931 H.M.S Effingham and 1928 H.M.S Enterprise (the donors of the Enterprise Cup)

Local rugby in the years prior to 1923 seems to have based on the main centers of the Plateau (Eldoret and Kitale), Rift (Nakuru District), Nairobi and Mombasa and matches conformed to the pattern of Town versus Country, Home Born versus Colonials, Officials versus settlers and matches between the various centres.
