Hi guys！三伏天即使你和燒烤之間只差一撮孜然，但也阻止不了沃們對運動的熱愛！就是這麼任性~OK，今天沃帶大家走近的是英式橄欖球——Rugby['rʌgbɪ]
等等，Rugby是什麼鬼？我們非常有必要先來縷一縷以下三種球類活動的關係：American Football在中國叫橄欖球，但是在美國叫足球（football），橄欖球對美國人來說是英國人玩的Rugby （英式橄欖球），中國人踢的足球在美國叫Soccer -亂套了麼？那麼我們今天要說的Touch Rugby又是啥？
Rugby was invented in England in 1845. Rugby is a very fast, exciting but sometimes very violent game! Touch Rugby is a fun, much safer type of Rugby. You do not need to be big and strong to play!
英式橄欖球起源於1845年，經過一百多年的發展、演變，形成了英式、美式、澳式等不同風格的橄欖球運動。英式橄欖球Rugby其實是一種非常激烈甚至有些暴力的運動，但是Touch Rugby是英式橄欖球中更加安全有趣的那類，不是大塊頭也可以玩！
A big Rugby player…
But anyone can play Touch Rugby!
The ball we use is longer and thinner than a soccer ball.
In Touch Rugby, two teams play against each other. Each team starts in opposite halves of the field/pitch. It is best to play with 5-7 people on each team. You can play on grass or on sand. Do not play on hard surfaces like concrete!
Touch Rugby中有兩個隊對抗，每個隊最好5-7人，你可以在草地或沙灘上玩，千萬不要在類似水泥地這種硬地上玩。
To win, your team must score the most tries. To score a try, you must place the ball in your opponent’s end-zone.
你的隊必須得分最高才能贏，因此你必須要把球放到對方的 end-zone。
You can carry the ball with your hands, and you can also pass the ball to your teammates. You can only pass to the side or backwards, never forwards. If you make a forward pass, the referee will blow his whistle and give the other team a penalty. Your opponents will now have the ball and you will have to move back 5 metres!
你可以用手拿著球，也能傳給你的隊友，但是你只能傳給旁邊或者後面的隊友，不能傳給前面的。如果你往前傳球, 裁判會吹哨,給對方一個點球，屆時你將不得不退回5米。
If you drop the ball, anyone can take it. If you throw or carry the ball outside of the pitch (to the left or right side), then your opponent gets to make a throw-in/line-in.
如果你的球掉了,任何人都可以搶它。如果你帶球出界, 那麼你的對手可以獲得一個邊線球。
Your team must move back 5 metres, and someone on your opponent’s team can throw the ball to their team (they still cannot throw forwards!).
這時候你們隊必須後退五米，對方球員可以發球傳給他的隊友（他們同樣不能向前傳。）When your opponents have the ball, you can stop them moving towards your end-zone, by touching the person carrying the ball (you cannot touch a player without the ball!). You can touch anywhere on their body, clothes or on the ball they are carrying. Be gentle! The referee will not allow aggressive touches or pushes and your opponent will get a penalty if you are aggressive.
當對手有球時，你可以通過肢體接觸阻止他們向你們的邊界區域移動（沒有帶球的對手你是不可以碰的）。你可以接觸他們身體的任何地方（衣服或者他們手中的球）。但是要紳士些！裁判是不允許野蠻的接觸的，否則對方將獲得點球機會。
This touch is ok…
This touch is not ok!
When you have touched a player, they must stop moving, and your team must move back 5 metres from them. The player who was touched must then roll the ball backwards between their legs and their teammates can pick the ball up and pass it. Your team can now start moving forwards again!
當你已經碰到一個球員，他必須停止移動，你的隊友要退回5米。被碰到的球員必須在他們腿之間向後滾球，他們的隊友可以把球撿起來並繼續傳遞它。你的隊友這才可以重新開始向前移動。
The referee will count the number of touches you have made against your opponent’s team. Once this reaches 5 touches, the referee will stop the game and give your team the ball. This is called a turnover. Your opponents’team will have to move back 5 metres,and you can then run or pass the ball between your team. If there is a penalty, throw-in, or possession of the ball changes, then the referee will start counting from zero touches again.
裁判將計算你的觸碰次數，一旦達到5次觸碰，裁判將暫停比賽並把球給你的隊友。這就是所謂的「球權轉換」。你的對手將不得不退回5米，這時你可以跑動或在你隊友之間傳球。觸碰次數計數期間，如果有任何點球，邊界球或控球的變化時，裁判將從零開始計數。
The game can last as long as you want, but a good time for beginners is 40 minutes. After half the time has gone, the referee will stop the game. You can take a break! When the game restarts, the teams swap halves of the field.
比賽時長可以隨意，但對於新手來說40分鐘為宜。當比賽時間過半，裁判會暫停比賽，你可以及時休息，當比賽又開始時，兩隊交換場地。
