About the French Rugby Federation (F.F.R.)
Founded in 1919 and recognized as a public utility in 1922, the French Rugby Federation (F.F.R.), an association under the French law of 1901, has been organizing, developing and promoting the practice of rugby for more than 100 years: XV, X, 7 and 5 throughout the country in order to meet the needs of its clubs and its members. With its values of integrity, passion, solidarity, discipline and respect, the French Rugby Federation (F.F.R.) addresses its missions to all rugby players and fans, to beginners and experts, to those who might want to play one day, to spectators and to players of all ages and levels.

Located in Linas-Marcoussis, in the Essonne region, less than an hour from the center of Paris, the National Rugby Center (F.F.R. headquarters) welcomes its 250 employees in the heart of a 20-hectare natural park. This green setting also provides quality facilities (restaurant, sports hall, athletics track, etc.). The National Rugby Center is also where the F.F.R. develops its activities: amateur rugby, social and solidarity actions as well as the supervision of the French teams.
