Rugby in Pas de la Casa

Will be arriving in Pas de la Casa on the 12th March, and hoping to catch the Rugby 6 nation games, can anyone recommend a pub/bar that is likely to be showing the games.

Hi, pretty much all of the bars will have the rugby on. Milwaulkee (sp??) which is just up from the lifts towards Alaska/Olympiades aparthotels is pretty good to watch sports in.

I was at PdlC twice (2004 %26amp; 05), there is a rugby club in Pas. It is located approx. half way down from the nursery slopes on the opposite side to the lifts (obviously). I think the road is Avenue d%26#39;Encamp. If you look for a small sign which says %26quot;Jardin du Rugby%26quot; which is 20 metres away from the sign. There is always a good reception there, especially if you were to bring your club shirt and thats always a good starter. I was there during the six nations and during the 05 trip Andorra played against Spain in Andorra la Vella, which is at approx 1000metres. At Pas you are 2050 metres at the border to France. I met the %26quot;landlord%26quot;, Eric, who doesn%26#39;t speak a word of English (but after a few hours it doesn%26#39;t matter) Frank the Cube, and I met a guy Jonnet Martinez who was an Andorran International Rugby player, who played in the first game for the 2007 qualifier in Andorra. The team play away mostly, there pitch was were the tunnel was built. But they are BIG tourers, been to Oz, USA etc. They speak French, Catalan and Spanish, but about half of them can speak English. Saves learning THREE languages.
