If you're a fan of Rugby, then be in The Hague for Haagsche Rugby Dagen (The Hague Rugby Days), taking place from 27 - 29 August.

Traditionally the tournament, of which all Dutch National premiership teams took part at the start, marks the end of the Dutch rugby season. However, the past few decades have signalled the start of it. In the Mid 90s, the demand for a pre-season tournament for all national teams dissipated and in partnership with Promotion The Hague the club found a new formula. The tournament remains the start of the season and the prize will still be the Béchèt-cup, however the tournament waws renamed; Haagche Rugby Dagen. Moreover the days get a more international character.

This year, the Rugby days will host teams from Ireland, France and Poland on the 27-28-29 August. The senior matches will be on Friday and Sunday, and the under 19s will play on Saturday and Sunday.

Come and join in the festivities of The Hague Rugby Days. Find more information at www.haagscherugbydagen.nl.
