Until 2008 all of their matches had taken place in England or Wales, against either England A or the Welsh national team. However, in the August 2008 a Nomad team toured outside the UK for the first time when they visited South Africa, playing two games against the national team as curtain raisers to two men's tri-nations internationals.
