In 2003, a rugby federation joined the IRB as a member. This new member was the FMRU, the Federación Mexicana de Rugby. This (close to) new member should be one of many countries I believe the IRB should be looking at as one of its primary developmental areas.
This is because, not only is it at the forefront of cultural representation of central and Latino America, but because it can contribute greatly in moving forward with Rugby USA and Rugby Canada in creating a new international first tier country area.
Currently, rugby in North America is experiencing growth at a rapid rate, as the fastest growing sport (with Lacrosse) in the United States.
It’s also one of the fastest growing sports in Canada.
This shows its long term sustainability since two national teams are gaining better and better players, and higher recognition.
Mexico is a growing nation, with a strong identity and many migrants spreading into the United States and throughout the world. Due to its close proximity and high migration rates, Mexico shares a cultural link with the United States.
In order for NAWIRA to move ahead and become a strong rugby zone, it is important that Mexico can become highly competitive with the States and Canada, offering the area a premier Test “tri-series” and moving forward into the new era of strong Americas Rugby.
