Making of A Champion: Rugby Union Star
By Andrew Langley
I love rugby union here are some differentses with rugby and rugby union: The two forms of rugby share the same basic rules of the game and use a similar-shaped ovoid ball. The aim is to score more points through tries, conversions, penalty goals and drop goals than the opposition within the 80 minutes of play. Goals are scored when the ball is kicked between the two posts and over the cross-bar, either during open play or as the result of a penalty. A try is scored when the ball is touched down on or beyond the defending team's goal-line. The try-scoring side is given the chance to score two additional points by kicking a conversion similar to a penalty goal attempt in a whichever point along a line which is perpendicular to the place where the try had been scored. The ball can be taken forward in three ways—by kicking, by a player running with it or as the result of a set-piece. The ball can be passed from hand to hand between teammates in a backward or sideways direction; it may not be passed forwards although it can be kicked forwards. Dropping the ball in a forwards direction results in a scrum, a set-piece that restarts the game, except on the sixth tackle in league where the game restarts with a handover to the opposition. Only the player holding the ball may be tackled. A rugby tackle is an attempt to bring the ball carrier to the ground or to stop his forward progress. Play restarts with the ball being transferred to another player. The playing positions are divided into "backs"—generally faster and more mobile who score most of the points and the larger, stronger "forwards" who are involved in the more physical aspects of rugby and generally do more tackling.
