Now's a good time to get into Rugby.
Hockey, and the NBA are done. College baseball is over, and you've already wore out all your women's beach volleyball reruns.

Football is still a solid 3 months away, so why not fill that big time sports void with some Rugby?

Highlights from "The Greatest Game Ever Played"

Some great scores from the Junior World Championships this year

Great Hits & Scores (called tries)

Motivational Hits & Tries

Best 3 minutes of any sport you'll ever see!

There are plenty of full games you could watch, so if you're wanting to know where to start, just ask some of the rugby fans on here.

My cousin plays professional rugby In Europe. It looks pretty intense.

Isn't this 7's time?

This was the one time of year I hated thinking of rugby. Too hot.

Would stroke.

I played for Rummel in high school at the gretna pitch.

It was one of the greatest times of my life.

The more and more I catch rugby here and there on the TV the more I want to play. I play Ultimate (frisbee) and like the quick paced nature of it...the disc and possession is always moving and formations for getting the disc free.

I just need to find a group of guys to be patient and like to have fun to learn how to play it. I don't have the speed, but I have the size and the hands/feet.

I'm interested, I watch as much as I can live and catch some espn3 replays... I'm more interested in aussie rules football though.

I thought they had a rugby team here in Mobile. They played on that large field right next to the USS Alabama (The Battleship) for years but I haven't seen anything going on out there in awhile.

seems like it would be a fun sport to play. I used to play football all the time. Played from the ages of 7-18 on organized youth teams and high school football.

ever heard of any smaller teams like that? I haven't met anyone around that plays or knows much about that team... i've been playing co-ed kickball for recreation lately... HELP would greatly appreciated

I'm sitting at the Frankfurt airport right now with the national 7's side from Canada. :csb:


ETA: If anyone in the Lafayette area is interested in 7's or 15's let me know. I know the guys running it and can pass along the info.

Someone give me a team from the big leagues. I don't know how this works, but it's the only sport on and it's the only sport the bars play around here.

I totally agree. Rugby is a great sport.

I watched UCLA win the Sevens national championship a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for keeping us posted on what's going on with Rugby.
