ΒΕΡΟΛΊΝΟ -
Το Εκτελεστικό Συμβούλιο της Διεθνής Ολυμπιακής Επιτροπής (ΔΟΕ) αποφάσισε  (13 Αυγούστου 2009) να συστήσει το γκολφ και το ράγκμπι sevens (7ς)  στο Ολυμπιακό πρόγραμμα για  τους Ολυμπιακούς αγώνες του 2016. Τα δύο αθλήματα θα είναι επίσημα αθλήματα των Ολυμπιακών αγώνων  με την έγκριση τους  στη συνέλευση της ΔΟΕ στην Κοπεγχάγη στις Οκτωβρίου 2009.

Εάν εγκριθεί, το ράγκμπι θα κάνει την πρώτη εμφάνισή του ως Ολυμπιακό αγώνισμα μετά από τους Ολυμπιακούς Αγώνες του Παρισιού το 1924.

SEASON 2009-2010

Welcome to the website of the Nicosia Barbarians Rugby Football Club.

The Nicosia Barbarians RFC was founded during the winter of 2003 by a group of keen expatriates. Emboldened by the heroics of our respective teams in the Rugby World Cup, although perhaps overconfident from the safety of our armchairs, we decided it was high time the capital of Cyprus had a rugby team to be proud of and to take the island by storm.

The team has successfully competed in the JSRFU league for the past 4 years finishing second in 2004-2005 and first in 2005-2006 season.We are a truly international team, with players from Cyprus, England, South Africa, Australia, Fiji, France, Roumania, Georgia, and the USA.

Players playing for the Nicosia Barbarians have represented the Cyprus National Rugby team (The Moufflons) as well as the British army team back in the UK.

While most of our players have not played since leaving school, we are a keen and talented side with an emphasis on team spirit.

Training and home games are held in the grounds of the Nicosia International Airport. 

The new season  will commence on the 18th of October 2008.

 

For any information needed please do not hesitate to contact us.
