What is the difference between rugby league ball and rugby union ball?
Rugby league is the professional code of rugby football, and Rugby is a town in Warwickshire. with a famous public school where the game developed. The main differences between rugby league football and rugby union football is that the principal rugby league teams are professional athletes instead of amateurs (albeit rugby union has some semi-professionals). The focus is more on running with the ball and scoring tries, instead of set pieces and kicking. There is almost no kicking in rugby league. You only have 5 tackles of passing and then you must kick over to other time. In rugby union you can kick to the corners downfield and you can have as many phases as you like when controlling the ball. There is a lot more kicking in the union game. League is really just passing. In league a try is 4 point while unions try is 5

The difference between rugby league and rugby union players?
rugby union have different levels of fitness as some of them are fast runners but not very strong where as some are strong but not very fast. in rugby league all the players are trained to be fast as it is a faster moving game and rugby league is more energetic and more exciting than rugby union _____________________________________________________________________ I believe the above is biased. Rugby Union ("Rugby") is really a team divided in 2, the forwards and the back and while Rugby League ("League") also has forwards and backs, the forwards play an altered role, being of less overall intensity as a group. Forwards in Rugby tend to be bigger and more powerful and agreed, often not as quick. League, a faster moving game? What planet did this answer come from? In League, every time a player is tacked, the game stops, wheras in Rugby, when a player is tacked he must released the ball and the play continues unstopped. Rarely does a League phase last more than 10-20 seconds before play stops, whereas a Rugby series of unstopped phases may last severeral minutes, requiring an extremely high level of fitness. In addition, Rugby has 2 extra players revolving arount the scrum (totalling 15 against Leagues 13). These players, Flankers or Breakaways are usually adept at 'pilfering' of extracting the ball from the opposing team during a ruck and maul.
