Rugby union in Italy is governed by the Italian Rugby Federation. Rugby was introduced into Italy in the early 1900s. It is also known as pallovale or palla ovale ("oval ball") within Italy. Two Italian professional teams (Treviso and Zebre) compete in United Rugby Championship, a league that also includes sides from Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Wales. One of the teams is guaranteed a place in the European Rugby Champions Cup; the other normally plays in the European Rugby Challenge Cup. The Top12 is the main national club competition. Four Italian clubs from the national championship compete in a qualifying tournament that awards two places in the Challenge Cup. Italy competes in the Six Nations Championship and Rugby World Cup, and is classified as a tier one nation by World Rugby

  • Le rugby à XV s'est diffusé en Italie depuis la France voisine au début du XXe siècle, puis s'est structuré dans les années 1920 autour d'une fédération, avec un (it) et une équipe nationale. La fédération compte de nos jours environ 74 000 membres masculins et 8 000 féminins, répartis en un peu plus de 1000 de clubs, principalement dans le nord du pays. Malgré l'omniprésence du football, le rugby est populaire chez les tifosi ; les matchs de l'équipe nationale attirent jusqu'à plus de 80 000 spectateurs au stade olympique de Rome. (fr)

  • Il rugby a 15 è presente in Italia fino dal secondo decennio del XX secolo; importatovi dalla Francia per subdiffusione, si strutturò alla fine degli anni venti con la nascita della Federazione e, a seguire, del campionato e della nazionale; partecipante alle competizioni internazionali dal 1936 (l'edizione inaugurale della Coppa Europa, vinta per la prima e unica volta nel 1997), il rugby italiano è presente alla Coppa del Mondo fin dalla sua prima edizione nel 1987, nel Sei Nazioni dal 2000 e, a livello di club, nelle competizioni continentali European Rugby Champions Cup ed European Rugby Challenge Cup fin dalla loro istituzione (1996).
