•Many people believe that rugby was born in 1823. The game of football as played at Rugby School (Rugby, England) between 1750 and 1823 permitted handling of the ball, but no-one was allowed to run with it in their hands towards the oppositions goal.

•The innovation of running with the ball at Rugby school was introduced some time between 1820 and 1830. It was legalized by the first written rules in 1845.

•Rugby School has left a considerable legacy in terms of the Laws of the Game, terminology, half time change of ends, the ball, the cap and, as far as the England team are concerned, the white of their jerseys.

•It was William Gilbert, a boot and shoe manufacturer in the town of Rugby, who is credited with the making of the earliest rugby balls to be used in the school football game, at the beginning of the 19th century.

The IRB (International Rugby Board) is the governing body of rugby.

History of Rugby

Equipment

The only equipment needed to play rugby is a ball.

The size and shape of the ball was not written into the rules until 1892:- Length 11 to 11 1/4 inches- Circumference (end on) 30 to 31 inches- Circumference (in width) 25 1/2 to 26 inches- Weight: 12 to 13 ounces - Hand sewn with not less than 8 stitches to the inch

Early balls were made from a pig bladder that was covered by leather. The size of the ball depended on the size of the pig bladder.

Around 1862 Richard Lindon introduced Indian rubber bladder inner-tubes and because of the pliability of rubber the shape of the balls gradually changed from a sphere to the shape we know today.

2004 IRB Law 2 states:The ball must be oval and made of four panels.Length in line 280 - 300 millimetersCircumference (end to end) 740 - 770 millimetersCircumference (in width) 580 - 620 millimetersMaterial: Leather or suitable synthetic material. It may be treated to make it water resistant and easier to grip.Weight: 410 - 460 gramsAir pressure at start of play: 65.71-68.75 kilopascals, or 0.67-0.70 kilograms per square centimeter, or 9.5-10.0 lbs per square inch.

Duration: A rugby match is played over 80 minutes, split into two 40-minute halves generally with

a 10 minute half time break. Number of players: Each team has 15 players. Eight players make up the forwards or “pack” (roughly similar to the linemen and line backers in American football) and seven players make up the backs (roughly similar to the backs and "skill positions" in American football).

How to Play: The ball can be moved by carrying it in the hands, or kicking at any time during play, but under no circumstances can the ball be passed or made to go forward by the ball carrier other than by kicking the ball. If the ball is hit or passed forward without it being kicked, it is called a knock on and is an infraction which results in a scrum to the opposition.

A scrum is used to restart in a number of situations and involves each team's forwards coming together, binding together by the shoulders over the 'mark' and trying to hook the ball back to their team's side once the ball is placed in the channel. This is similar to a tip off in basketball with each team having a chance at winning the ball.

When the ball is being kicked during a kick off or 22 meter drop out it must be drop kicked.

If a ball is kicked or taken out of bounds the ball is restarted by a lineout. This is similar to the throw-in in soccer and works on the same principle.

Rules

Page 17: Rugby Presentation

If a team is awarded a penalty (meaning the other team committed a penalty against them) they have the same three options at every penalty. They can either:

1. Kick the ball out of bounds and receive a lineout where the ball went out

2. Take a free kick. The ball only has to be 'kicked' through the mark in this instance. Most teams will typically just tap the ball over the mark to keep better control of it and restart play quickly.

3. Take a penalty kick at goal (similar to a field goal in American football, but in this instance the defense cannot rush the kicker).

In any of these instance, the guilty team must retreat 10 meters from the spot of the foul.

Rules

Page 18: Rugby Presentation

Goal of the game: To score as many points against your opponent as possible while conceding as few as possible. Points are scored by the following methods:

•Tries: A try is worth 5 points and is scored by a player touching the ball down into the opponents "try zone " (between the try line and dead ball line). It is the rugby equivalent of the American football 'touchdown'. Tries can also be awarded as penalty tries when an attacking player is illegally kept from scoring a likely try.

•Conversions: A conversion is awarded when a try is scored and allows the attacking team to gain 2 more points by kicking the ball between the posts of the rugby goal. Again this is the rugby equivalent of American football's 'extra point'. The conversion is usually taken from the line in the field where the try was scored. This means you can back up as far as you would like so long as you are kicking along an imaginary line which runs parallel to the sidelines through the place the ball was touched down.

•Penalty: A penalty kick scores 3 points and is awarded if a serious foul has been committed. The kick is taken from the spot of the foul or any where behind it on a line through the referees mark.

•Drop Goal: A drop-goal scores 3 points and is a kick at goal during the run of play, where the ball is kicked just after touching the ground. These can be kicked at any time, from anywhere, by anybody. All that is required is that you literally drop the ball and let it hit the ground first.

The team that has been scored on always restarts play by kicking to the team that scored the points
