The Romanian Wolves (Romanian: Lupii României) is a professional Romanian rugby union team that competes annually in the Eastern Conference of the Rugby Europe Super Cup, alongside RC Batumi and The Black Lion of Georgia as well as Tel Aviv Heat of Israel.
History
At the end of the 2003-2004 season, both champions Dinamo Bucharest and runners-up Steaua Bucharest declined the opportunity to take part in European competitions next season, mainly for financial reasons. With this in mind, the Romanian Rugby Federation decided to patch things up and create a new representative team based in Bucharest named simply "Selectionata Bucureşti" (which could be translated as "Team Bucharest") or "Bucureşti" (translated as "Bucharest") in order to be more competitive on the international stage. Essentially, the idea was to create a team that would bring together the most valuable rugby players from the domestic championship and give them a chance to prove they could be part of the senior national rugby team, as well as providing some international experience for the up and coming local players. For this reason, the team was also known as "Romania A", a label that was fairly used in the Romanian sports media during the early years of the team's existence.
