  1. Interesting Rugby Facts Rugby is a popular winter game played around the world and with the Rugby World Cup final looming in a few days, having a look at some of the rugby facts can prove interesting and entertaining. The first rugby ball was created by Richard Lindon. The ball was made using a pig bladder which was then covered in leather strips. What’s worse is that Lindon’s wife was responsible for blowing up the rugby balls. A team effort that developed into the oval ball we know today. A whistle has sounded the opening of every world cup since 1905. The traditional blow of the whistle marks the start of the game. When that whistle blows is when everyone is either glued to their television or staring at the field, ensuring that they don’t miss an important try or goal. The longest drop goal in ruby was recorded back in 1932 and was an impressive 77.7 meters. Since then we are still waiting to see the same great success in games played today. The longest game recorded took a whopping twenty-eight hours to play. This was played between two United Kingdom teams that played the game for charity. In addition to this, the Olympic champions for rugby are the United States, this is because rugby has not been considered an Olympic sport for more than ninety years.

  2. Now that you have the facts, it’s important to look at the facts that surround a good quality rugby kit. Whether you are designing a kit for your team or you want your rugby kit to wear with confidence, there are some important facts to take into consideration, ensuring you make the best selection to meet your particular requirements. The first is a comfort. A rugby kit must be comfortable and enable players to move around the field without their movement being restricted. Ensure any fabrics you choose are of the highest standard and are made to last. Remember rugby isn’t a gentle sport, players are going to pull and tug on your kit, so you want to ensure it can handle the demands of the game before placing your order. Another fact to remember is that rugby kits can boost team unity. Your team will feel a sense of pride when they put on their kit. A united team will work together towards common goals, which means that they can work together and they can identify their players will ease during the heat of the game. In addition to this, a fact about rugby kits is that they promote a professional image. Whether at school or professional level, players running on to the field in their rugby kit puts a good foot forward and makes a good impression on the spectators. Not to mention players in their kit are easily identified by those enjoying the game.
