The Brunei Rugby Football Union (BRFU; Malay: Kesatuan Ragbi Brunei Darussalam - KRBD) is the governing body of rugby union in Brunei Darussalam.

History

[edit]

Rugby union, which is played in 105 countries around the world, has been played in Brunei since the 1950s. Despite the fact that the Brunei Rugby Football Union has been around since 1977, it was never officially registered with the Registrar of Societies until November 2004.

The Brunei Rugby Football Union is still in its infancy. It registered officially as a society in November 2004, and was admitted into Asia Rugby in 2004. It became an associate member of World Rugby in 2013.[1]

It administers the Brunei national rugby union team.
