Rugby Union thrives in and around Madrid. The city is home to three of the 12 teams competing in the top tier of the Division de Honor de Rugby & 4 in the second tier. The game has strong routes in the the Schools & Universities around the City creating an abundance of quality opposition for touring teams looking to embrace the passionate rugby culture offering some of the best third half experiences in rugby playing Europe. We often say that you go to Barcelona with high expectations & they’re met - you walk into Madrid with curiosity and they’re blown away

Tour Tale

 "A few seasons ago we hosted Vernon Rugby Jackals from Canada on their tour to Spain. Having left 3ft of Snow in British Colombia, the team looked forward to some Sun. After spending the first five days on the scorching beach in Barcelona, the team jumped on the train to Madrid. As we climbed through the mountains past Zaragoza, it snowed, yes, snow, in Spain. Arriving into a blizzard in Madrid, the irony of the first snowfall in 20 years wasn’t lost on the tourists."
