Snow rugby refers to forms of rugby union that are especially adapted to be played in winter conditions, particularly in deep snow.
Specific locations of play include the Argentinian Ski Resort of Las Leñas[5][6] and the Boitsfort Rugby Club in Brussels.
Because of the cold, and often subzero, temperatures at which snow rugby is played, players must dress warmly.
In 2009, Gulmarg hosted India's first ever snow rugby tournament in Kashmir[2] and it was included in the 2008 Indian Winter Games as a demonstrative event.
[9] Tournaments have also been held in Finland,[10][11] France,[12] Latvia,[13] and Argentina.
