Argentina played its first international rugby match in 1910 against a touring British Isles team. It is today considered one of the top rugby nations in the world and the best in the Americas by a considerable degree, and has competed at every Rugby World Cup staged since the first in 1987.
The Georgian Rugby Union (GRU) was founded in 1964. It was part of the Rugby Union of Soviet Union from 1964 to 1991. The Independent Georgian Rugby Union was established on 27 May of 1991. It is the governing body of rugby union in Georgia. It organizes the Georgia Championship, Georgia Cup, the Georgia national rugby union team and the Georgia A national rugby union team. It became affiliated to the International Rugby Board in 1992. It is based in Tbilisi.
The Georgia Rugby Union is a non-profit organization that is the primary overseeing body for the promotion of rugby union throughout Georgia and the Southeastern United States. The GRU has been in existence since perhaps as early as 1978.
The GRU is divided into 4 divisions. The most prominent division is the Men's Professional Division. However there is also a Men's Collegiate Division, a Women's Professional Division and a Women's Collegiate Division. The Men's Professional Division focuses on Atlanta, yet this division also hosts clubs across Georgia and also in South Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, and Alabama.
The 2011 Rugby World Cup qualifying process will end with a playoff to decide the 20th and final qualifier. Four teams, the best non-qualifier from each region, except Oceania, will compete for the last place at the 2011 Rugby World Cup finals in New Zealand. The winner of this playoff will compete in Pool B, along with Argentina, England, Scotland and Georgia.
