Pacific Islands Rugby Alliance

The Pacific Islands Rugby Alliance (PIRA) started in 2002 as a co-operation between the Fiji, Samoa and Tonga Rugby Unions. Niue and the Cook Islands also became members of the Alliance and sent players to the Pacific Islanders team. Both the PIRA and the Pacific Islanders team ended in 2009.[1]
