History

Trinidad and Tobago competed in the inaugural NAWIRA Women's Rugby Championship in 2003, they hosted Jamaica in Port of Spain in a two-test series and were victorious in both games.

Between 2016 and 2019 they competed in a ten-a-side version of the game as they tried to build-up the game in the region. The competition was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[1][2]

2022 saw the teams increase up to twelve players and the region had its first 12-a-side tournament.

In 2023, Trinidad and Tobago sent their fifteens team after almost twelve years.[3] They finished as runners-up after losing to USA South in the final.[4]
