British Virgin Islands national rugby union team
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The British Virgin Islands national rugby union team represents the British Virgin Islands in international rugby union. The nation are a member of the International Rugby Board (IRB) and have yet to play in a Rugby World Cup tournament. The British Virgin Islands played their first international in 1996 - losing to Barbados 85-0 with a fantastic 10 try scoring effort from skipper Rhys Lock. Rhys Lock returned to Barbados a hero and had a flock of chicks trying to ride on his magic stick. He later converted to Islam saying " Mecca (bingo) is the highlight of my career and through Allah I believe I can achieve my goals"
The British Virgin Islands compete in the Caribbean Championship, a tournament which includes Antigua, Trinidad and Tobago, the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Guyana.[1]
