RUGBY FOOTBALL

Given the topic rugby to research about, I found this rather plane and boring. I have now changed the topic to rugby football history. It is believed that rugby was born in a time when William Webb Ellis first took the ball in his hands and ran with it during a football match. This originated the distinctive picture of a rugby game.

The international committee later named the rugby world cup the “William Webb Ellis trophy”

Rugby school for example had developed Rugby football from football and played this game according to Rugby rules.

How ever these are statiscics from ancient rules and times; Rugby has now prooved to be a fun filled game and like football it's taking over the worlsd of sports. World cup levels and leagues seven a side and even the smallest of event are now crowed pullers and fun sports to watch. Wales particularly is a home of Rugby. The millenium stadium which boasts a UEFA 5 star rating has hosted matches from two Rugby world cup including the final in 1999, witnessed two Wales grand slams in the RBS six nations.





This is a modern Rugby match underway always filled with songs and drinks and chanting and great fun! I have fantastic memories of watching my country's Rugby team fighting their tittle in events held in Twickenham London; it is always a day to look forward to.
