The 2010 NACRA Women's Rugby Championship was the first tournament hosted by the Bahamas. It was a significant departure from previous events, which had featured only teams from English-speaking West Indies. For the first time, USA and Canada sent their U20 teams - however, again financial problems restricted the participation of most island teams, with the exception of the Cayman Islands. The result was a three-way NACRA tournament. The Caymans also played hosts The Bahamas for the Caribbean title.
A Caribbean Select XV (with players coming from Trinidad & Tobago (T&T), Guyana, Jamaica, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, and St Vincent and The Grenadines) also played non-tournament games against the USA, Canada and Bahamas. [1] [2]
The tournament took place at the Winton Rugby Centre, Nassau, from 15–21 August. Canada U20 defeated USA U20 6–3 to win the Championship. [3]

Following the NACRA tournament, the two individual Caribbean entrants played off for the Caribbean title. Cayman Islands secured their first Caribbean Championship with a comfortable win. Two early tries from centre Lolitta Hanna provided Cayman with an early 10 point lead and further tries from Lisa Bird and Emily Davies and a katie Bayles conversion gave Cayman a commanding 22-0 half time lead. Second tries for Bird and Hanna and one each for Kehoe and Lawrence with Bayles adding 3 more conversion rounded off Cayman's 48-0 victory.
