Welcome to Rugby in the Arabian Gulf. Until December 31st 2010 this region is made up the countries of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. After that date the countries will be represented individually in line with an I.R.B. directive.

There is a well established league structure in both men’s and women’s club rugby and a strong development programme introducing the sport to the Arabic residents with several new teams having been formed recently

The Arabian Gulf hosted the Rugby World Cup Sevens in 2009 and Dubai is the venue for the first stop on the I.R.B. Sevens circuit each year.
