They are currently ranked 93rd in the International Rugby Board''s world rankings, which ranks only the top ninety-five countries. Traditionally, Austrian rugby has been strongest amongst students, particularly in Vienna. However, it has faced fierce competition from soccer and skiing. Like neighbouring Germany, Austrian rugby has a surprisingly long history, dating back to 1900, but the game''s English image meant that its development was hindered by the events of the early 20th Century, particularly the two world wars, and the rise of two major far right movements. The first documented game of rugby played in Austria occurred on April 14, 1912. The sport was being brought to Austria by two Englishmen hoping to expand the sports base. It was over sixty years, however, before rugby union took hold in Austria. Nonetheless, a 1930 game between two French sides in Vienna drew no less than 10,000 spectators, proving that there was a significant interest at the time.
