RUGBY Since 1823 Rugby is a close-contact team sport. It is based on running with the ball in hand. In its most common form, a game is played between two teams of 15 players each, using an oval-shaped ball on a rectangular field called a pitch. The field has H-shaped goalposts at both ends.

HISTORY OF RUGBY William Webb Ellis Rugby football stems from the form of the game played at Rugby School, which former pupils then introduced to their universities. According to legend, William Webb Ellis picked up the ball and ran with it during a school football match in 1823, thus creating the "rugby" style of play. Although the story has become firmly entrenched in the sport's folklore, it is not supported by substantive evidence, and is discounted by most rugby historians as an origin myth.
