The Chinese Taipei Rugby Football Union (CTRFU)) (Chinese: 中華民國橄欖球協會) is the rugby union governing body in the Taiwan (Republic of China). Because of Taiwan's complex relationship with the People's Republic of China, the union competes under the name Chung Hua Taipei or "Chinese Taipei", rather than as either Taiwan or the Republic of China.[1][2]
History[]
