Welsh Rugby Union

The Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) is the governing body for rugby union in Wales. Established in 1881, it oversees the national team, organizes domestic leagues and competitions, and promotes the sport across the country. The WRU manages the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, home to international matches and key events. Rugby is a significant part of Welsh culture, and the national team's success, particularly in the Six Nations Championship and Rugby World Cup, fosters national pride. The WRU also supports grassroots initiatives to develop young talent and enhance community engagement in rugby.
