There is a certain type of(1) game called rugby. The game is called so because it was originated at Rugby — a well-known English public school. As well as common football it is a game played by two(2) teams of fifteen (3) players each. The game takes place on a field 100 meters long and 80 meters wide. There are goal posts at both ends of the field. Rugby is played with an oval or egg-shaped ball which can be carried by hands and kicked. The (4) ball is passed from hand to hand in order to be thrown across the goal line. It is a rather violent(5) game, which is why the players must be big and strong. Another requirement for the players is to wear helmets, masks and chest and shoulder padding.
