*** RUGBY IN A NUTSHELL ***



Rugby is based on running with an oval-shaped ball in hand but...you can also kick it! In its most common form, a match is played between
two teams of 15 players each on a rectangular field called a pitch. The field is equipped with H-shaped goal posts and a goal line at each
end. The aim is to get the ball between these posts or to flatten it behind the line. Two of the bests known features of rugby are the
tackle, used by the defence to prevent the opposition from advancing and the scrum, a method of restarting play that involves players
packing closely together with their heads down and attempting to gain possession of the ball.
