The Algerian Rugby Federation (FAR) has announced a new competition where 20 teams will play in a championship starting in September 2017.
The president of the FAR, Sofiane Benhacen, said the teams will be divided into two groups, Centre-East and Centre-West, as part of the competition.
Benhacen said that another team, Misserghine, had recently been formed in the province of Oran and will join teams in Arzew and Oran, that have already been playing for a few years.
Members of the FAR visited the new club, which was left out of the recent โtri-nationsโ tournament organised in Oran, and assured the players and leaders of their support.
As part of youth training, a national union sevens tournament is scheduled soon in Oran. It will be the third of its kind, after those organised in the Centre and in the East.
