Rugby is played in over 120 countries around the world. The popularity of rugby lies in its rich history, traditions, camaraderie, and community involvement in the sport. Young children can enjoy the non-contact versions of the sport. Generally, there are 15 players per team, though 7-players per team are also popular. Sometimes, there may also be 10-players per side. Many players continue to play rugby well into their adult years. Others coach players or become referees.
