What makes Rugby so appealing to me are its characteristics of being a sport that is intense, physical and yet, graceful at the same time. Imagine the grace by which players avoid heavy opponents out to slam their bodies at them while running at full speed. Imagine the intensity by which the game is played by people who train for several hours per day and puts their entire energy within several few minutes of play. No Rugby player would ever willingly yield an inch of playing field.
Watching a European rugby game on television, I would say, is very much worth my time and I would recommend that people, especially the uninitiated, try it. For the match schedules, they can visit the official website for Europe's premier international rugby tournament, the 6 nations championship. It has the complete list of the matches, results, podcasts, information about the different teams and very cool interactive games. For those who want to receive updates via email or readers, they may also subscribe to the site’s RSS feeds.
Try Rugby. You’ll like it!
