ASIA NATIONS RUGBY: Jordanian Team for Division 4

The team has just been emailed to me as the head coach was about to run and catch the plane to Almaty.

This is the first time Asia Nations has featured a Division 4 competition. The other teams are Uzbekistan, Kygyzstan and Mongolia.

Uzbekistan, Kygyzstan and Mongolia played a regional tournament in Tashkent last year, Uzbekistan being the winner. They defeated Kygyzstan in the final 31-12.

Jordan lost its first international rugby test match on 15 May when it lost 8-27 to Lebanon in Dubai. This test match was a curtain raiser to the Arabian Gulf-Korean Asia5Nations game.

The Division 4 tournament was originally down to be held in the Kygyzstani capital Bishkent, but has been transferred to the Kazakhstani Capital, Almaty, due to civil unrest in Kygyzstan.
