Rugby

Rugby is one of the most well-known proficient team sports in the U.K. It is established in 1987 by a boy named William Webb Ellis, who was believed to have developed this game by running across a field with a ball in his hand during a football game at school.


Rugby is divided into Rugby Union and Rugby League. It is different from football, this sport is played with 13 or 15 people on each team. Rugby can be played with not only hands but also feet. The members must support one another to score a goal, showing teamwork in each match.


The Rugby World Cup has been held since 1987 and takes place every four years and the winner will receive the Webb Ellis Cup. The other major tournaments are the Six Nations Championship in Europe and The Rugby Championship in the Southern Hemisphere.


Today, this sport becomes very popular in school. No country is banning this game, making it becomes popular throughout the world.
