One of the fiercest sports that are played on stadiums is Rugby; it demands dedication, stamina and huge levels of testosterone from each one of the 15 players that participate in the game.  While there are many other sporting events that do require a high level of the same substance, it is only in the Rugby arena where it is noticeable at its highest capacity.

Check out the official Rugby Football Union website for the latest scores and highlights.

Rugby is not a game that is as commercialized as soccer or American football, or even baseball, but it is quite a popular game that has been immortalized even in comic books in Europe and America.

The game is played in a rectangular shaped area that can be covered in grass, snow, dirt, artificial grass or even sand.  Of course, the preferred materials are grass and snow, since the other materials are usually too harsh for the skin and players have to keep soft padding to prevent opposite players from getting hurt as it happens frequently in American football.

Naturally, the goal of the game is to score. Scoring is called “goal” and there are 5 general ways to score a goal:

• Try that provides 5 points.
• Penalty try that also provides 5 points.
• A drop goal that provides 3 points.
• A penalty goal that provides 3 points also.
• Conversion that provides 2 points.

Of course, the Defence tactic is to prevent the opponent to score a goal and achieve points, to this end, they tackle the opponent by knocking him down pulling from the torso downwards, it is penalized to grab the head or neck since the injuries could be permanent or life threaten.
