Best Answer

In the union code

15 players on each team (plus substitutes). This totals no more than thirty players on the field at any point during the game from both side. If there are more than 15 players from one team on the field, it is a penalty.

In the League code there are 13 players plus subs for each team. No more than 26 may be on the field at anyone time. In this code the wing fowards (flankers) are not used.

In a severns team as the name infers only 7 a side for each team may be on the fieled of play at anyone time.
