Tigre Rugby Club is an Argentine rugby union and field hockey club sited in Tigre, Greater Buenos Aires. The rugby union team currently plays in Tercera, the sixth division of the URBA league system.
Tigre RC was the first rugby union club in Tigre so the existing clubs were dedicated to other sports such as football (where Club Atlético Tigre has been the most representative club of the city due to the football popularity in Argentina) or rowing, which is a very practised activity because of the nearness of the Río Tigre that crosses the city dividing it in two.
