1993 England rugby union tour of Canada
The 1993 England rugby union tour of Canada was a series of five matches played by the England national rugby union team in Canada in May and June 1993. The English team won four matches and lost one. They drew their two match international series against the Canada national rugby union team, losing the first game and winning the second to share the series one-all. Sixteen England players were taking part in the 1993 British Lions tour to New Zealand at the time so the team was not fully representative of England's strength. England did not award full international caps for the matches with Canada.[1]
