Some Information on Rugby In INDIA
The British introduced Rugby to India. However it is not very popular in the country. It is mostly played in schools. Rugby is club based and national championships (South Asia) are held every year at the Bombay Gymkhana, Bombay in August.
Indian Rugby Team
India right now has a rugby union team. This is India's main rugby team. India has lost 14 matches in rugby, won 2 and tied 1. But India still doesn't have a sevens rugby team nor it does have a women's rugby team. There have been some evidence of women being trained for rugby. It is not confirmed till now that whether India has a rugby league team.
The Indian Rugby Team is ranked 86th in the world, out of 95 teams. Their captain is Nasser Hussain, nicknamed "Nino", and their coach is Willie Hetaraka from New Zealand. There are, in total, 13,200 registered rugby players in India. They were admitted to the IRB in 2001, but it took three years before India managed to win a match - beating Pakistan 56-3 in the third tier competition of the Asian Biennial tournament.
In 2005, they started their attempt to qualify for the 2007 Rugby Union World Cup, but a 22-36 loss to Kazakhstan sent them out of the running for that tournament. They also disappointed with a 8-8 tie in Guam, but still finished second in their group of four teams thanks to beating Malaysia 48-12 - a massive improvement, as only two years earlier Malaysia had beaten them 20-13 in a friendly. However, as only the top team in the group qualified for the next stage, India were out. Their current record in IRB-recognised internationals is two wins, one tie, and fourteen losses.
