North Wales rugby (original) (raw)

North Wales Rugby (Welsh: Rygbi Gogledd Cymru) was a representative rugby union team representing Wales. They competed annually in the Welsh County Championship and represented the region against international touring teams including Tonga, Romania, Japan and Western Samoa. At age grade level they competed twice against the touring New Zealand under-21 side. In December 2009 at a Welsh Rugby Union press conference held at Ruthin Castle they were formally replaced by the new developmental regional rugby union team for north Wales RGC 1404.
