Rugby Variations
Rugby has two variations: 7's & 15's.
In 7's, there are 7 players on each team consisting of 3 forwards and 4 backs. A 7's game is played non-stop for two 7 minutes halves with a 2 minute halftime.
In 15's, there are 15 players on each team consisting of 8 forwards and 7 backs. A 15's game is played non-stop for two 40 minute halves with a 10 minutes halftime.
Youth Rugby
RugbyOhio is the governing body for our K-8 youth rugby league and has set up youth rugby as the 7's variation of rugby.
7's
7's rugby benefits new players as it allows the kids to learn the basics of the game easier and also allows for several matches each game day. During our season, each team will typically play 4 matches each Sunday.
