The Skilball Trophy was contested in 1990 by a team titled the "Four Home Unions" against a team titled the "Rest of Europe XV". This was a match to raise money for the rebuilding of Romania following the overthrow of Nicolae Ceauşescu in December 1989. The Four Nations team's logo was that used by the British and Irish Lions, i.e. the crests of the four home unions united in a shield. The Rest of Europe played under the symbol of the Federaţia Română de Rugby. The match was played at Twickenham, and the four home unions won the match 43-18 with England captain Will Carling scoring two tries.
