Welcome to the Arm Forces Rugby historical site!

US Military teams have existed on and off since the 1919 Allied games held after WWI. Servicemen have played in the 1920 Olympics and with a variety of teams until the last 1960's when base level teams began to organize. They were fueled by the service academies who have a long history, but it was not until the formal organization of USA Rugby in 1974 that there began a concerted effort to support military teams. From that initiative in the late 1970's, we saw the formation of the first Combined Services team, and later, service teams and intraservice championships. The competition is always been fierce, yet the sense of brotherhood seen within the rugby culture has always been stronger among our the military teams.
