SO WHO ARE THE BARBARIANS?

THE BARBARIANS:

The Barbarian Football Club, also known as the “The Barbarians” or the “Baa-Baas”, is a Rugby Union Club based in Britain. It’s members are rugby union players from all countries and clubs.

The Membership is by INVITATION and the only qualification considered when issuing an invitation is the standard of a player's skills. An additional qualification is the rugby player’s good conduct and reputation on and off the pitch.

Being asked to become a Barbarian is an HONOUR. Traditionally at least one uncapped player is selected for each match.

The Barbarians bring together players from different clubs to play a few matches each year to enjoy the camaraderie of the game and play attacking, adventurous rugby without the pressure of having to win.


NOTABLE PLAYERS:
Past UK and Irish players include Wales’ legends- Gareth Edwards, Gerald Davies, Phil Bennett and Cliff Morgan. This year Wales former Tight Head Prop(no. 3)ADAM JONES won 2 Caps for The Barbarians.

Other notable past players are former England Players- Bill Beaumont , Jeremy Guscott, Jason Leonard and David Duckham; Scotland’s Andy Irvine; Irish players Jack Kyle, Mike Gibson.

Other big names from around the world that played for The Barbarians include Australia’s David Campese, New Zealand’s Zinzan Brooke, South Africa’s Francois Pienaar and France’s Philippe Sela.



The Barbarians have a distinctive strip- Black and white shirts and black shorts. What is a very appealing tradition of the Baa-Baas, is that the players wear the socks of their own Clubs.
