Why get into rugby union?<\/p>\n
If you enjoy being active and want to build your fitness with team mates then this is the game for you.<\/p>\n
Who is it for?<\/p>\n
It’s one of the most inclusive sports around and there are various versions of the game that you can test out.<\/p>\n
Is there a cheap option?<\/p>\n
You can just play touch rugby in the park with a bunch of friends or family, but joining a club can be inexpensive.<\/p>\n

From scrummaging to tackling, to sprinting with the ball, this can be a high intensity workout that will boost both your fitness and your strength.<\/p>\n
Can I take it to another level?<\/p>\n
Work your way up. Start with a club then look to your county and from there people will start noticing you.<\/p>\n
