I've been involved with Rugby for twenty-five years now as a player, a referee, a coach, and an old boy. There is something about the game that lifts it above a sport, it's a bloody religion, as my college coach said.
I've coached high school boys and seen them get the love for the game where I know they will play for the rest of their lives. Their parents came up to me and said, "Thank you for giving 'Junior' a chance to play. He's never played an organized sport before... he loves it... we are so proud of him." It only takes a couple of those to cement one's committment.
Now comes a Rugby Documentary that is trying to get the attention of US movie execs. Have a look.
