Thomas Arnold was a headmaster at rugby school in Warwickshire from 1828 to 1841. He raised rugby and he reformed it by making it a school for gentlemen. Muscular Christianity is a Christian commitment to general health and manliness. It can be found in the Old Testament.
Industrialisation has changed rugby because as industries were built this meant that more jobs had come about for the working class, so there was less chance of rugby being played for them as they would have had to be working so they could earn money.
In the Victorian times rugby was a very aggressive sport with hardly any rules. The influence of industry is that the game changed because the sport was so aggressive that in some cases some people were being seriously injured or even died, this meant that the industries that they worked in were being affected as people couldn’t work.
Rational recreation and the codification and civilising of sport. All sports in the UK have developed a lot, society became more civilised, people became better mannered and less violence occurred. This meant that as middle class people began working in rational recreation, for example factories, there wasn’t much time for rugby. Codification was included in all sports to make them less aggressive.
The influence of industry and better transport and communication aiding and spreading sports development.
This developed rugby because as there was better transport this meant that teams could play each other and were able to go to away matches. As phones were developed this meant that people were able to communicate better and were able to plan rugby matches and training easily.
The British Olympic Association is the National Olympic Committee for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It was created in 1905 in the House of Commons. It now includes thirty five national governing bodies of each Olympic sport. The BOA and World Rugby are responsible for getting rugby back into the Olympics after being excluded in 1924.
