Rugby League
 "The object of the game is fairly straightforward. 13 players are on each team at "kick off". Each teams "13" is made up of 7 "backs" and 6 "forwards" Each team attempts to score more points than the other team. There are 80 minutes in which to do this. Either team can score points through scoring a "try" or kicking a "goal". When a team has the ball they are given six tackles or chances to score. If after six tackles they have not managed this, then the ball is given to the other team who then also have the chance to score with six tackles.
