Vintage Rugby provides the chance for teams, players and
referees to enjoy games in the Vintage Rugby style against teams
from all over the world.
Vintage Rugby is a truly international movement with
Carnivals planned to be staged at some of Rugby's greatest destinations.
At the heart of the Vintage Rugby movement is a team of
committed rugby people who have as their objective, the planning and organising
of regular Vintage Rugby Carnivals designed for maximum enjoyment and
participation of all mature rugby players and supporters.
The World Vintage Rugby Office....
The World Vintage Rugby Office is based in
Auckland, New Zealand but is truly international with rugby advisory board
members in France, South Africa, United Kingdom, New Zealand, USA, Canada,
Ireland, South America and Australia. The International Advisory Board controls
all rugby aspects of each Carnival. Contacts and Useful

These representatives are available to assist with
promotion of Vintage Rugby and its principles, to encourage involvement of teams
and clubs within their region, to accept comment from players in their area and
to significantly contribute to the setting of rules and planning of World
Vintage Rugby Carnivals.
Vintage
Rugby Offers So Much More.....
The Vintage Rugby Movement consists of a large number
of teams and individuals who share a love of rugby. Many wish to continue to
play for as long as they can. The rules and spirit of Vintage Rugby provides the
opportunity to do just that.
In addition to the biennial World Vintage Rugby Carnivals
the Vintage Rugby Office can arrange matches before and after the carnivals,
assist with travel arrangements and organize tours to all parts of the rugby
world. The Vintage Rugby database includes teams in 26 countries who are
prepared to host visiting sides. Just contact the office and we will do the
rest.
CHARITY IS THE WINNER WITH VINTAGE RUGBY....
Vintage Rugby is non-profit making. Any surpluses
generated at Vintage Rugby Carnivals are re-invested back into local charities
in the areas where Carnivals are staged through an incorporated legal entity,
The Vintage Sports Charitable Trust.
Completely independent of the Vintage Rugby Office, its
members and the organising committee, the Vintage Trust will be responsible
for beneficial distributions to charitable organisations wherever Vintage Rugby
Carnivals are played.
