    Why Is Rugby Unique

    I play a sport that’s not very popular. I play rugby. I’ve tried other sports before, but none really interested me as much as rugby. I started playing when I was a freshman at Lakeview high school. Starting at a new school I didn’t know anyone and I thought maybe a sport would help meet some people. I heard about rugby and decided to try it out. Deciding to try rugby was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. One reason rugby is unique is because you have to be flexible and adaptable. It also promotes responsibility, and creates bonds that I just don’t think other sports can.…

    Rugby is regarded around the world as a high intensity, physical, and challenging sport. In the United States, it is regarded as a barbaric, un-regulated, and foolish sport. This misconception comes from the widely inaccurate notion that concussion among other injuries is inevitable in the sport. Rugby is beginning to take hold in high schools across the countries, and young adult athletes are the first generation to bring this internationally recognized sport to America. The idea of rugby being not safe however has also leaked into adolescent athletes. Students’ choice to play rugby in high school is being influenced negatively due to wrong perception permeating from the media that it leads to severe head injuries.…

    Things in this world draw interests to people; it could be a person, a place, or even a thing, no matter what it is, people will always have interest. People are unique and can have both similar and different interests than someone else. Sports are a huge interest in the world, but within that are many types of interests, some people may like one sport while others like a different sport, different sports peek the interests of different cultures and people. Europeans take interest in soccer, while Cubans take interest in baseball. However not all Europeans like soccer and not all Cubans like baseball; some sports may interest some people, but have no effect on others. For example, rugby is a sport that is also played in Europe, people in the United States don’t watch rugby to the extent as people in Europe do mainly because to many Americans, rugby is not interesting. We all have different interests, one of mine is American Football, mainly the NFL. I find it entertaining because of the complexity of the game, the physical aspect of it,…

    Australia is a multicultural country, where equality holds a great importance (Griffiths, 2010). However, like many societies around the world gender inequality affects not only the Australian society but also cripples the females in the sporting arena (Cozzillio & Hayman,2005).

The main research question, “Will the introduction of women’s rugby sevens in the Rio Olympic games help close the gap of gender equality in Australian sports?” It is essential to evaluate the underlying issues around female participation rates and how it compares to other codes. It also significant to see how governing bodies, such as the Australian Rugby Union, (ARU) the Government and the media influence female participation. It is these very factors that are…
