IRB's article on Cyprus rugby and tomorrow's match

'The focus over recent weeks in the European Nations Cup may have centred on the top division and qualification for Rugby World Cup 2011, but at the other end of the spectrum Cyprus are preparing for their "most important match" in history against Bosnia & Herzegovina on Saturday.

Cyprus' rugby history is admittedly very short, the first rugby club only being formed on the island in 2003, the Federation three years later and their first international match played against Greece on 24 March 2007 at the Paphiako Stadium in Paphos.

Their record, nonetheless, now reads an impressive played 11, won 10 with the only loss coming against Israel 18 months on from that first international, a 23-14 defeat which ended their hopes of replacing their hosts in Division 3C of the European Nations Cup.

Cyprus have been the team to watch in Division 3D with only Bosnia & Herzegovina able to live with them, losing their home encounter 8-6. Azerbaijan have been dispatched 37-3 and then 59-0 earlier this month, with Monaco beaten 24-3 and 44-5....'

Some are SC, some are SC born abroad but eligible to play because of heritage, some are naturalized 100% non cypriots and of course NC's are most certainly eligible to play as they are part of Cyprus.
