Rugby Is Lit!

Recently, a friend of mine that I attend my youth group with asked me if I wanted to play for his rugby club this year. I knew nothing about the sport except for that there was a ball somewhere in it. I began to attend practice a few times a week. The coach of the club really helped me by showing me simple things like how to pass the ball or the correct way to kick it. It is in a way similar to football but you can only pass backwards, anyone can touch or pick up the ball, the field is much much wider, and there are more people on the field. I have been going to practice for a few times a week for a little over a month and I am really starting to enjoy it. Whether it be the drills or the touch games I have found a lot of enjoyment in just going to practice. I still do not know all the rules of a real game but I am start to get a pretty good general idea for how to play and what to do. I even scored a couple of tries which is the same thing as a touchdown in football. I am very excited for this year and my rugby experience with the Olathe Gents Rugby Club to begin.
