RUGBY Rugby

Rugby is a contact team sport which originated in England in the first half of the 19 th century. One of the two codes of rugby football, it is based on running with the ball in hand. In its most common form, a game is between two teams of 15 players using an oval-shaped ball on a rectangular field with H-shaped goalposts on each try line.

Field The field of play does not exceed 100 meters in length and 70 meters in width. Each in-goal does not exceed 22 meters in length and 70 meters in width. The side-lines are referred to a touch-lines. There are numerous other markings in a rugby pitch. Two important ones are the 5 meter line (which runs parallel to the touch line and is important for line-outs – see below) and the 22 meter line which is parallel to the goal line (this marks a defensive boundary; a player between his own 22 m line and his goal may kick the ball directly off the pitch in defense)

Time Two 40 -minute halves with a five-minute half-time and no timeouts. Any time lost due to tending injured players on the pitch is added to the end of each half

Team Fifteen players on each team with 7 substitutions. Once a player is substituted, they may not return to the game unless the substitution was to stop bleeding (i. e. bloddy nose). All 15 players may run, kick or pass the ball (forward passing is not permitted). The 15 players are divided into two groups (discussed in more detail on the Player Positions page): 8 forwards (generally larger and stronger) who focus on obtaining and maintaining possession of the ball 7 backs (generally smaller and faster) who focus on taking the ball forward and scoring

Goal The goal of rugby is to move the ball forward by running with the ball or kicking. The team which scores the most points (see below), wins the game

Play A match begins with a kick-off from mid-field which must travel at least 10 meteres. Play is continuous and free-flowing. There are no “downs”, no designated offensive and defensive teams, no blocking and no automatic “turn-overs” of possession. The ball usually marks the offside line. The ball may be advanced by running or kicking. Passing with the hands cannot be forward but can be lateral or backward. Players without the ball cannot be tackled or interfered with in any way (this includes a player who has just kicked the ball). When a player is tackled to the ground, the ball must be released and the player must move a way from it; play continues without stoppage. A “ruck” or informal scrum (see below) forms over a tackled player without stoppage of play.

Scoring Their are 4 ways in which a team may score points in rugby: Try – Five points when the ball is touched to the ground (“grounded”) in the opponents end zone. Conversion – Two points for a kick through the uprights after a try is scored. The kick is taken on a line (parallel to the touch-line; see above) which passes through the place where the ball was grounded. Thus, grounding the ball “between the posts” makes for an easier conversion attempt than if the ball is grounded near the side-line. Drop Goal – Three points for ‘drop kicking’ the ball through the opponent’s uprights at anytime during play. Penalty Kick – Three points for place-kicking the ball through the opponent’s uprights following an infraction by the opposition. Penalty kicks must be taken from the point of the infraction.

Defense The defending side may halt their opponent’s advance by tackling, stripping the opposing player of the ball, or forcing a turnover of possession. Tackles must be made below the opponent’s shoulders and the tackler’s arms must wrap around the tacklee.

Penalty Kicks and Free Kicks Penalty and free kicks are awarded to the non-offending team for numerous infractions throughout the game. Penalty kicks are usually used to attempt to score or to gain territorial advantage by kicking the ball into touch (in this case, the team who kicked the ball into touch will throw-in at the line-out). Free kicks cannot be used to score and are usually taken as very small kicks which are then picked up and carried forward. Penalty and free kicks must be taken from the point of infraction. The offending team must retreat 10 meters from this point.
