About Rugby


Rugby union (short for rugby union football) is an outdoor sport played with a prolate spheroid-shaped ball by two teams of 15 players. It is one of the two main codes of rugby football, the other being rugby league. In both codes, there is also a seven-a-side variant, called rugby sevens, which is played under modified rules and is faster. Rugby union is often referred to as simply rugby, rugger or egg chasing.[1] It is sometimes known as football, or, in countries where rugby league is also played, as union.
