Caribbean Rugby

I did not know that Rugby was popular in the Caribbean, although it does not surprise me with it's British heritage, plus the fact I played Rugby with a lot of guys from West Indian families in the UK.

There were no Caribbean teams in the recent

Rugby World Cup
I wonder how long before we see a Caribbean side there?

I am sure that they would do very well considering the prowess of the Caribbean athletes and of course the West Indies produced one of the best Cricket teams of the last century, dominating that game for a decade or more.

The Island nations of the Pacific put on a great show in the Rugby World Cup, so I have no doubt that the Caribbean sides could do the same.

Any Rugby fans interested in a post mortem of the 2011 Rugby World cup should check out

The Rugby World Cup 2011 Report Card
There is a round up of how all the top teams performed plus some great lookalike pictures of some of the players, coaches and referees who took part. I think all Rugby fans will be amused by them.

Bring on the Windies Rugby Team.

Thanks for you valuable submission. I hope that one of these days we'll have a Caribbean Champion.

The Caribbean Islands are full of talents to be discovered.
