The team who scores the most points wins.In rugby for kids, 15 people play at a time per side, each of which have specific duties as a player. Players are usually talked about in respect to two categories. Members of the first group are called the the pack, and consist of the first eight players. Members of the second group are called the backs, and consist of the remaining players, numbered 9 to fifteen.If a player is tackled to the ground they must release the ball. If a player is held while standing, a maul will usually be formed.The line-out and scrum are two key distingishing factors to the game of Rugby Union. A scrum happens when there is an accidental violation.This is methods of restarting the game.A try is scored when a player puts the ball in the opposition's goal area. It's counted as 5 points, and can be converted to an additional 2 points with a successful place, kick, or drop kick. Points may be awarded from a drop kick too, in general a play and a penalty kick. Both are worth 3 points. -Scott Gowrie February 27th, 2011
