How can I ace my rugby tryouts at school?

Sports Rugby — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 10:13:59 +0000

Can someone give me tips on how to ace my rugby tryouts at school. I can run quite fast but I can’t run for a long period of time, so can someone give me tips on how to run for longer periods of time.

Thanks in advance and by the way, I have no idea how to play rugby so can you keep the answers to easy steps.

Well my tip for you is that you shouldn’t run your hardest until you got the ball or you are trying to tackle your opponent, so throughout the game you should just jog, so you don’t lose your breath.

Do you think that Canterbury should be where the New Zealand rugby academy should be based?

Based on the facts that this province has produced understandiliby the best preformed players over the previous years then i feel that by using our formula that we have down here should be good cause to have the academy based in Canterbury. Now this is just a question not something to take personally.

NO, Recently Canterbury isn’t a breeding ground for top players. How many players are even grew up in the area and even less born there.
They buy in players.

Mini stress rugby balls – where can I get them from?!?

Sports Rugby — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 10:20:59 +0000

I am trying to get around 60 balls but would be willing to go up to 100, if anyone knows of anywhere in the UK which sells them and would be willing to put a message on them?

Cheers
Thanks, already searched Google but would like a personal recommendation from someone of a company, if possible!

i found this site they do promotional advertising so i should think you could get them to put your message on it

What are the differences between Football and Rugby?

Sports Rugby — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 10:10:59 +0000

I’m like really into Football, but they don’t got a team at my new school. But there is a Rugby team. I’ve been told that football and rugby were pretty similar, just wondering what the differences were.

Massive difference, first the eqiupment issue which is none in rugby, no forward passes, the breakdown after every tackle having to compete for the ball, no set number of Downs in rugby- you can keep the ball for as many phases as you like provided you don’t knock it on( lose the ball forward) or get peanalized.

But the biggest difference is you have to be a true athlete in rugby, 15 men on the paddock and only 7 subs which can only be subbed once during the game. If you come off the field due to injury- your game is done unless its for blood. so doing the maths if all subs get on (which they dont always) at least 8 players have to play the full 80 minutes. No offensive, defensive and special teams.

I used to play football thru school and loved it, great game. Moved to New Zealand 7 years ago and have followed rugby. Now I have to admit I think rugby’s a much better game.

Hope this helps
