Rugby Trivia. Is Rugby played in Antartica? Yes, rugby has been played in Antarctica for decades as part of an annual tradition known as the Ross Island Cup. The match typically takes place on a pitch of sea ice near McMurdo Sound, between teams from the neighboring research stations. The Ice Blacks: Representing New Zealand's Scott Base. The Mount Terror Rugby Club: Representing the United States' McMurdo Station. Key Details of the Antarctic Match The Pitch. Played on sea ice roughly 10 feet thick (about 3 meters). The "grass" is actually groomed snow, prepared using ski field machinery. Conditions. Matches are often held under the midnight sun in extreme temperatures, sometimes during blizzards or whiteout conditions with winds reaching up to 80 km/h.

Raeburn Shield 🏉Rugby's Lineal Men's Champions
Have you ever played “winner stays on”? Or king of the table? You beat the current champion… and you take their place. Well, that’s exactly what we’re doing with rugby. The Raeburn Shield (men’s rugby) and the Utrecht Shield (women’s rugby) are lineal world titles for rugby

🌟 Today, on #InternationalWomensDay, we honor the trailblazers who pioneered women’s rugby! 🏉 In 1982, France faced the Netherlands in Utrecht, marking the first-ever women's rugby international. This game was a milestone, breaking barriers and paving the way for future

🏉 Will the Raeburn Shield & I make it to Dublin this weekend for the epic #IREvSCO clash? 🤔 Flights are skyrocketing at £500 (yikes!), and that's just the start—still need match tickets, stadium access, & a place to crash. 🏟️✈️🏨 Who else is planning to cross the Irish Sea

When you hold rugby’s lineal world title, you defend it in every single match you play. Which means when Scotland travel to Dublin for the final round of the Six Nations, they’ll be bringing the Raeburn Shield with them. And what a final round it’s shaping up to be.

Scotland are still rugby’s lineal world champions. And what a statement they made. They absolutely put France to the sword, extending their run with the Raeburn Shield to three matches. First they took it off England. Then they defended it against Wales. And now against France💪
