NACRA Women's Rugby Championship


In 2010 the former NAWIRA Caribbean Women's Rugby Championship became the NACRA Women's Rugby Championship, potentially broadening its coverage in accordance with the widened aim of its recently renamed sponsor.

2010 (Bahamas)

The first tournament, hosted by the Bahamas, was a significant departure from previous events which had featured only teams from English-speaking West Indies. For the first time USA and Canada sent their U20 teams - however again financial problems restricted the participation of most island teams, with the exception of the Cayman Islands. The result was a three-way NACRA tournament. The Caymans also played hosts The Bahamas for the Caribbean title.
A Caribbean Select XV also played non-tournament games against the USA, Canada and Bahamas.
The tournament took place at the Winton Rugby Centre, Nassau, from 15–21 August.

2011 (Cayman Islands)

The second tournament, hosted by the Cayman Islands, saw the return to competition of island teams from Trinidad and Jamaica, but no teams from outside the Caribbean, possibly because the tournament clashed with the U20 Nations Cup. Other islands were again represented by a Caribbean Select XV. For the first time, all matches in the tournament were streamed live.
