The Croatian Rugby Union is currently enjoying another golden era in the sport.
The national team recently earned historic promotions to the European Trophy division, and also to the elite rugby 7s competition in Europe.
Croatia joins the likes of European rugby powerhouses France, Ireland, Italy, and Great Britain this season in the elite 7s Championship division.
The first tournament will be played from 7-9 June in the Croatian coastal city of Makarska and the Croatian Rugby Union have put the call out for players with Croatian heritage who are interested in wearing the red and white checkers.
