  • ARGENTINA RUGBY LEAGUE NATION OVERVIEW
  •  

    Foundation Year - 2005

     

    International Team - Argentina Penguins

     

    Top level domestic competition - There is currently no domestic rugby league competition.

     

    History - Argentina are a new rugby league playing nation. Argentina Rugby League was formed in 2005 to accommodate the touring Australia Police Force rugby league team. The Australian Police Force toured Argentina to assist with the start-up and development of rugby league.

     

    In 2006 four teams took part in a rugby league 9's tournament in Buenos Aires. Their are plan's to have rugby union clubs involved in a rugby league competition in the rugby union off season. One famous Argentina rugby union player Pablo Bouza had a stint in rugby league before moving to Union and playing for the national team.

     

    Since 2006 Rugby League has stuggled to gain a foothold in Argentina.

     

    The recent success of the 2008 Rugby League World Cup will provide further funds to help develop the sport around the world. The Rugby League European Federation (RLEF) or Rugby League International Federation (RLIF) will hopefully continue with the pioneering work started by the Australian Police Force rugby league team in 2005. With the right support Argentina could become a force in rugby league.
