Rugby League originated in the north of England.
In 1886, the Rugby Football Union introduced strict amateur-only rules to combat the dominance of the game by working class northern clubs.
In 1893, a proposal to pay players six shillings when they missed work due to playing commitments is rejected by the Rugby Union.
In 1895, 21 rugby clubs from Lancashire and Yorkshire meet in Huddersfield and form the breakaway Northern Rugby Football Union.
In 1897, the Northern Union abolishes line-outs and reduces goals to 2 points and tries to 3 points.
In 1906, the number of players is reduced from 15 to 13, rucks and mauls are replaced by play-the-balls and rugby league is created as we know it today.
