The Fédération luxembourgeoise de rugby was founded in May 1973, and joined the IRB in 1991.

They have traditionally seen themselves as rivals to Andorra, which is in a similar position to them - i.e. a small population, a growing interest in the game, plus the input of many foreigners working there in the finance industry.

A second club, De Renert Walferdange was created in 1990, and plays in the Belgian Championships.

Because it neighbours France, one of the world centres of rugby, and French media has strong penetration into Luxembourg, the game has enjoyed an inordinately high-profile.

At the moment, the club exclusively caters for the youth, but with the potential for founding a senior team.
