So I figured I would blog about the Slippery Rock Women's Rugby Team because we are one pretty bomb team. Before I start posting details about how we're doing I figured you would all need a brief background of the game to fully understand what I'm saying. The place we play the game is called the "pitch". It looks pretty much like a football field on steroids. The ball also looks like a football on steroids because it is nice and plump with more rounded edges. Basic game play consists of two 40 minutes halves. The ball must always be passed backwards, a forward pass results in a penalty. To score is called a "try" and you must physically touch the ball to the ground for it to count. Now that you kind of know what rugby is I will be posting more scores and highlights later on.
I know a couple of the rugby girls and I give you guys MAJOR props! You guys go through so much and your definately a bomb team. I have yet to see you play but it seems like there are not too many games played here at SRU. Just wanted to let you know your awesome and keep kicking butt!
