  3. How to get into rugby union

    BBC Sport

    Why you need to start playing rugby

    Camaraderie and teamwork are vital skills in most team sports, but none to the same extent as in rugby union.

    From schoolyard games of touch to lining up for your country in the Six Nations, rugby union is a sport of skill, bravery and strength.

    If you are more interested in throwing a ball around there are plenty of options for you, from the aforementioned touch, where tackling is banned, to light-hearted options like beach rugby.

    Although a certain level of physical stature is required in the professional ranks, rugby union really is an accessible sport, with the wide range of functions between different positions making it a sport for everybody,

    Forwards are typically stronger, heavier and entrusted with the more physical aspects of the game, whereas backs utilise pace and agility.

    It is incredibly popular at universities and women's rugby clubs around the country are always looking for enthusiastic players and the next new pool of talent.

    Find your local club in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to give it a go.
