Chile Rugby

The history of rugby union in Chile dates back to 1936, meaning the country was one of the first in South America to start playing the sport. 

In 1989, Chile became one of the founding members of Sudamérica Rugby, alongside Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Since then, Chile has become a key member of many of South America’s regional tournaments, including the South American Rugby Championship (which they’ve won once in 2015) and the Americas Rugby Championship. Today, the team is widely considered to be the third-best in South America, behind Argentina and Uruguay. 

Chile’s finest achievement on the international stage came in 2023, when the team officially represented their country at the Rugby World Cup. They overcame the odds in qualifying, beating both Canada and the United States in two-legged play-offs. Sadly though, this was the end of their fairytale story and they were beaten in every pool game. 

Chile are very much a team on the up. They’ve qualified for the 2027 Rugby World Cup and they’re set to join the newly formed World Rugby Nations Cup in 2026.
