About the club

Las Leonas are Spain's women's rugby union team, run by the Federación Española de Rugby, founded in 1923, and the red lion that gives them their name comes from the federation's own crest. They have played since the late 1980s and were at the first Women's World Cup, in Wales in 1991, the start of a near-constant presence among the elite: Ireland 2017, where they beat Italy and Hong Kong to finish 10th, and England 2025, opening against New Zealand.

In Europe they rule. Continental titles pile up, the tenth came in 2023, and in November 2016 they made history by knocking out Scotland, a Six Nations side, with a 15-10 win at the Complutense's Central ground in front of 3,500 people. They wear red by tradition, with Joma since the Olympic era and Iberdrola on the chest since 2016, when the energy company became the brand of Spanish women's sport.
