Rugby union has been growing steadily in the Philippines over the past decade. The Philippine Volcanoes — the national men's rugby union team — have been competing in the Asia Rugby Championship and have built a passionate following among sports fans in Manila, Cebu, and beyond.
Filipino rugby fans tend to follow international powerhouses like New Zealand's All Blacks, South Africa's Springboks, and Australia's Wallabies closely. The Rugby World Cup draws significant interest, with viewing parties popping up in sports bars across Makati and BGC during major tournaments.
Rugby Sevens has also gained traction locally, partly due to its inclusion in the Southeast Asian Games. The fast-paced, high-scoring format is a natural fit for Filipino sports fans who love the energy of basketball and the unpredictability of sabong. axe88 covers Rugby Sevens events extensively, giving local fans more ways to engage with the sport they love.
