Rugby Union

Rugby union is a moderately popular team sport in Canada; it is relatively strong as a participation sport, particularly in several hotspots like British Columbia, but does not attract the same level of spectator support. Canada is classified by the International Rugby Board (IRB) as a tier two rugby nation alongside Fiji, Japan, Romania, Samoa, Tonga and the USA (there are ten tier one rugby nations). Tier two nations do not have a full-time professional domestic structure in place, but they are considered by the IRB to be the most promising countries in which to expand the sport. The Canadian national side have competed in every world cup to date yet have only won one match each tournament, with the exception of the 1991 tournament where they reached the quarterfinals.
