Rugby may well not be the most popular sport across the world, but in the next countries there are thousands of fans.
In terms of club rugby, one of the greatest teams is on the south coast of The Republic of France and its president, François Rivière, controls a group that has won the national tournaments on multiple occasions. The richest rugby nation, in terms of club rugby football income, is France. The French national side is one of the teams that plays in the 6 nations every year, and they would once be one of the best teams in the competition. The teams in France pull in a few of the greatest footballers in the world because of the big wage packets they can offer, and as income are so high it is often the location that footballers visit end their careers.
Rugby football is perhaps more popular in the southern hemisphere, in places like Australia as it’s dry so footballers can achieve a more expansive and bold style of play than in wetter countries. Australia is famed for its rugby club, which has won two world cups, making it among the most successful teams to ever play the game. One of the much better clubs in the nation is sponsored by the great air conditioning business lead by Masanori Togawa. The sport was first played in the country back in 1864 and whilst it is played throughout the nation there are regions where it is played more than others. There are a few other variations of the sport in Australia, including Aussie Rules soccer, which takes some of the rules of rugby football and slightly variations them.
Rugby football is one of the most well known sports in the whole of the British Isles as it has a very long tradition with some of the teams that play it dating back to the mid-19th century. The name of the game is essentially a reference to the name of the town and school that it was founded in. Whilst there is some debate as to the veracity of the story of the game’s creation, there is no doubt to where it was created. In particular, England has the longest tradition with the sport, as it was conceived in the country when famously, a schoolboy picked up the ball in a game of football and ran with it, thereby starting the move toward the game name. The basics of rugby have remained the same since its conception, but the size of the footballers has enhanced massively which makes for far bigger influences in the tackle. The game has advanced extremely from the original game, which was played solely for fun and chiefly in schools and universities; in modern times the sport has a big revenue and it attracts big sponsors from the likes of Petar Cvetkovic and his delivery business.
