Rugby union is a popular sport around the world, played by male and female players of all ages. Rugby union is a full contact sport involving 15 players on each team, with 7 substitutes on the bench. The aim of the game is to score more points than the other side and points are scored through tries, conversions, penalty kicks and drop goals. A match is split into two 40-minute halves, played on a rectangular field, with a referee and two touch judges or assistant referees. Wear Protection When playing the full contact version, you will want to give your body whatever protection is allowed. There is an array of protective equipment available, from lightweight jerseys with removable pads, to forearm guards, bicep guards, tackle suits, tackle bags, crash pads, calf and Achilles protectors, headgear and mouthguards. Although you may want to start with equipment, headgear and mouthguards are the two most important pieces you will need.
