For People From ail Walks of Life

Remains Just a Game

By DALE PATTERSON

The following article was ~

taken from the Canadian Rugby
Newsletter of Aug., 1976:
Ina Canadian sports scene
awash with violence and play-
ers’ strikes, huge contracts and
franchise negotiations, there is
one game that, gratefully, re-
mains above all: a game.
Ever since William Webb
Ellis, in a game. of soccer in

* 1823, had the gall to pick up the

ball and run with it, rugby
football has been perhaps the
most adamantly amateur game
in the world,

It has been emerged as one
of the -most. _ exciting contact,

be truly considered an: inter-
national game. It is probably
second only to soccer as the
world’s most popular team
sport, but you will find no Pele
earning a million dollars a year
in rugby. 5 x

This game is for. people
from all walks of life. From the
in Wales, to the

lawyer in Toronto, the student
in Vancouver. and the factory
worker in London—who go out
for a weekend to let out a few
aggressions and as often as not,
show up for work the next day
with a few aches and. bruises
with a degree of perverse
pride.

The game cannot be con-
sidered dangerous, however,
and the statistics prove that
there are far less injuries in-
curred playing rugby than.most
other contact sports. There is
no protective gear or danger-
ous equipment, so players must

avoid collisions’ which could
cause serious injuries,

The pioneer rugby club in
Canada was the Montreal Foot-
ball Club, which was founded in
1868 and which had matches
with regimental troops, Since
that time clubs have been es-
tablished in every province in
the country. There are now
approximately 150 senior clubs
with some 10,000 adults in- -
volved in rugby every weekend
of the season, y

One of the most exciting
developments over the past few
years has been the growth of
the game in schools and the
emergence of rugby as an im-

fst schools :

The ‘province ‘experiencing
the most :dramatic growth is~
Ontario, which has: over - 200
high schools involved’ in com-
petitive rugby programs in that
province and the-number is in-
creasing every year. Not far
behind is British Columbia, in
its acceptance of rugby as an
important. part .of its’ school
programs.

Rugby is

because of high costs involved,
tugby remains one of the least
expensive sports,
Membership fees are com-
paratively small and since the
only equipment is a jersey,
shorts, socks, and boots, there
are minimal costs involved in
purchasing and maintaining

+ equipment,

A. frequently publicized
and obviously important aspect
of the game is the social
tradition’ associated with the
game. A football or hockey
game ends with possibly a
handshake from the opposi-
tion—maybe. You will probably
never see any of them again,

Es! igbystraditionwide-
mands* (a7 detiintd “tie" with
pleasure on all sides) that you
“host the visiting team with a
few beers after the game. No
matter..what the mood of the
players may be during the
game, once the final whistle is
blown, the players are drawn
inte the close feeling of fellow-
ship experienced between rug-
by players the’world over. .

Rugby is a social passpost |

running and handling game, the
object of which is simple: if you
have the ball, advance it by
running, kicking or passing
laterally and get it into the end
zone. If you don’t have the ball,
separate it from the fellow who
does.

But the mechanics are only
a part of the sport; there are
many other aspects equally as
important to Canadians.

In rugby, there-are no
major leagues, no fat contracts,
no television glory, no team
drafts. It's just a game. And it's
fun.

We are saturated by cover-
age of professional sports which
entertain us but do not involve
us. Participate in rugby and
you will find that sport can be
fun for the likes of you and I,
even though we may never play
inthe Stanley Cup or compete
in the Olympics.

The rugby community is
open to all who desire to belong
to it. There are no trials, no
expensive fees, no complicated
equipment and you won't have
tospend any time on the bench,

The. Castlegar Cossacks
have been in the area approxi-
mately two years and are in-
terested in having you join us.

men’s basketball over the past
winter. If you are interested or
