In this episode of Global Sports Odyssey, we explore the origins of rugby at Rugby School in England, tracing its development and the legendary story of William Webb Ellis. The sport officially took shape in 1871 under the Rugby Football Union (RFU) but later split in 1895 due to disagreements over professionalism vs. amateurism, leading to the creation of Rugby Union and Rugby League.
We break down the key differences between the two versions, including team sizes, tackling rules, scoring systems, and gameplay styles. Despite these differences, both forms of rugby have grown into globally recognized sports, with Rugby Union dominating in over 100 countries and Rugby League thriving in England, Australia, and New Zealand.
This episode highlights rugby’s deep-rooted traditions, strategic evolution, and worldwide influence, setting the stage for our next discussion on rugby’s rules and gameplay.
