Rugby Union Sample Clauses

Rugby Union. A rugby union game is played over 80 minutes, divided into two 40 minute halves, with the objective to score more points than the opposition through tries (5 points), conversions (2 points), and penalty goals or drop goals (3 points). The game is characterised by intermittent and repeated periods of high-intensity activities, involving running, passing, kicking, and numerous contact events, such as xxxxx, mauls, scrums, and tackles1–3. The tackle, involving both the tackler and the ball-carrier, is the most common event in the a game4. Depending on position, players can make an average of 11 tackles2, and up to 30 tackles per game2. Subsequently, the tackle is also responsible for the highest number of total injuries4–6. Higher incidence and severity of injuries is negatively linked with team success, and reductions of this injury burden can positively influence success in rugby union competitions7. Due to the relationship of the tackle (tackler and ball-carrier) with safety and performance, it is imperative to be able to measure and monitor the skill and technical competencies of rugby union players when tackling or carrying the ball into contact.
