Rugby World Cup
Japan has participated in the Rugby World Cup since its inception in 1987, and has made appearances in all tournaments thus far. Despite this, they have experienced little success, with just one victory over Zimbabwe in 1991, and two draws with Canada in 2007 and 2011. They will be the home team for the 2019 Rugby World Cup, which is to be held in Japan.
