I want to start with this sentence… because summarize……daily life.
DIAPOSITIVA 1
Objective: Rugby is played between two teams with the primary goal of scoring
points by carrying, passing, and kicking the ball into the opposing team's in-goal
area (similar to an end zone) or by kicking it through the opponent's goalposts.
Try: grounding the ball beyond the try line
Teams: Each team typically consists of 15 players on the field at a time, divided
into forwards (usually larger, heavy and stronger players) and backs (typically
faster and more agile players).
Ball: Rugby is played with an oval-shaped ball that must be passed backward
(toward the player's own try line) to teammates.
DIAPOSITIVA 2
Scoring:
Try: The primary way to score is by grounding the ball in the opponent's in-goal
area. This is worth 5 points.
Conversion: After a try, the scoring team can attempt a conversion kick worth 2
points.
Penalty Kick: A team can attempt a penalty kick for 3 points when the opposing
team commits a foul.
Drop Goal: A drop goal, where a player kicks the ball through the goalposts during
open play, is worth 3 points. The player drop the ball onto the ground and kick it
when touches the ground
DIAPOSITIVA 3
Forward Pass: Unlike American football, a forward pass is not allowed in rugby.
All passes must be made backward or laterally (sideways).
Tackling: Players can tackle the ball carrier to stop their progress. Tackles must be
made below the shoulders and above the knees. Dangerous tackles are penalized.
Knock-On: If a player loses the ball forward (toward the opponent's goal line), it's
considered a knock-on, resulting in a scrum awarded to the opposing team.
DIAPOSITIVA 4
Rucks and Mauls: When a player is tackled to the ground, a ruck or maul may form,
and players from both teams compete for possession of the ball. Rucks involve
players on their feet, while mauls involve players on their feet but in contact with
each other.

DIAPOSITIVA 5
Scrums: A method of restarting play after certain infractions, where eight players
from each team bind together and contest for the ball by pushing against each other.
Lineouts: Used to restart play when the ball goes out of bounds, lineouts involve
players from both teams lifting a teammate to catch the thrown-in ball.
DIAPOSITIVA 6
Yellow and Red Cards: Referees can issue yellow cards (sin bin) for temporary
suspensions and red cards for ejections for serious foul play or multiple yellow
cards.
Advantage: If one team commits a foul but the other team can still benefit from the
ongoing play, the referee may allow the game to continue without stopping.

It's a good sport with bad press from a bunch of misfits…
