History
Amatori Rugby Milano was founded in 1928. The club won the first ever Italian domestic championship (today, the Super 10) of 1930. Amatori Rugby Milano would dominate the coming years; winning back-to-back titles in 1931, 1932 and 1933. Amatori Rugby Milano won the championship again in 1936, and then twice more during the decade, in total throughout the 1930s, winning the national championship on eight occasions. The 1940s were also a highly successful time for the club; winning the championship after their 1939 victory once again in 1940, which was then following by successful championships three seasons in a row to 1943. Amatori Rugby Milano won a fifth title that decade, winninng the 1946 season as well.
