Rugby
Rugby is a team sport played between two teams of 15 players each (or 7 in rugby sevens) on a rectangular field with “H”-shaped posts at each end. The objective of the game is to score more points than the opponent by carrying the oval ball over the goal line to score a try, or by kicking it between the posts for a kick-off or drop goal.
Rugby is based on continuous play, with few interruptions, and combines physical strength, strategy, and technical skill. Players can run with the ball, pass it only backward to teammates or kick it forward. When the ball carrier is tackled, play continues with dynamic phases such as rucks and mauls. Physical contact is a key component, but regulated to ensure safety and fair play.
