Sport has been divided into sports with contact levels.

1. Full contact sport: is any sport in which there is impacting physical force, deliberate and incidental and allowed in the rules of the game. Contact is by tackling and blocking. RUGBY is a full contact game. The others are American football, wrestling martial arts (all varieties) and Ice Hockey.

In rugby Scrum is the best example of full contact. It is the restarting of play when the players from both teams hunch together and tightly interlock their arms and heads in readiness for the ball being thrown in by the scrum half. It is a shortening of scrummage or scrimmage and has now come to mean a riotous struggle in ordinary English.

2. Semi-contact sports are those sports that entail striking like kick boxing

3. Limited contact sports are those for which there are rules which prevent intentional or unintentional contact for example: baseball, basketball, soccer, field hockey, netball, squash & running.

4. No contact sports golf or curling, tennis, cricket, volleyball, swimming, sprinting, and gymnastics.

RUGBY or Rugby union (as it is called in some places like Australia and New Zealand) is played between two teams. Each team has 15 players on the field. Substitution for tactical reasons and replacement for players exit due to injury is allowed. A replaced player (injured) cannot return to the game unless it was a temporary replacement for bleeding injury. A substituted player may return temporarily. In international matches, replacements are limited to 7. In domestic or cross-border tournaments, it is discretionary and the replacements may be increased to eight provided that at least three have experience and are sufficiently trained to provide cover for the three front row positions.

Players in a team are divided into eight forwards and seven backs. Forwards are generally bigger and stronger, and take part in the scrum and lineout, while backs are generally smaller but faster, more agile and often the main point-scorers for the team. Games are played for 40-minutes, and after a break the sides exchange ends of the field and play for another 40 minutes. Visit WatchRugbyOnline.net and register.

Britain’s leading co-ed boarding school is in Rugby, a town at Warwickshire. Legend has it that when William Webb Ellis was playing in the school foot-ball team in 1823, he began to run towards the opposition goal clutching the ball instead of kicking it or dribbling it with his feet. Ellis is credited with having invented a new game. In 1845, the pupils of the school had written the first set of rules. The game began to be called “Rugby” after the name of the school where it was first played. Despite the lack of clear evidence supporting this legend, it has been immortalized in 1895 at the school with a plaque in memory of this event. This plaque (AD 1823) commemorates the exploit of Ellis who disregarded the rules of football and ran with the ball to the goal clutching it instead of kicking it. This distinctive difference is the prominent feature of rugby. Visit WatchRugbyOnline.net and register your name there. You can Watch New Zealand Vs Ireland Rugby Union Live Stream

It is played on a rugby field or pitch (as it is sometimes called), measuring about 100 metres long and 70 metres wide with goal posts on goal lines.
