Lusitanos XV are a Portuguese professional rugby union representative team based in Lisbon which was created in September 2013 to compete in the 2013–14 European Challenge Cup.[1] It was announced by the Rugby governing body ERC on 2 September that the Portuguese team would hold their home games at Estádio Nacional.[2] However, all their home games were played at the Portuguese national rugby teams home stadium of Estádio Universitário de Lisboa.

In 2021, the team entered the Rugby Europe Super Cup, representing Portugal in an eight-team pan-European competition for clubs from non-Six Nations countries. The team reached the final, played in May 2022, and lost 17–14 at home against the Black Lions.

First season

[edit]

The team was formed in 2013, to represent Portugal in the Amlin Challenge Cup after the Spanish representatives Olympus Rugby XV withdrew from the competition.[3] The first game was held on 10 October 2013, against Stade Français, a game which they lost 61–3 at Stade Jean-Bouin.[4]
