Rugby football is a sport people play in many countries. It is ''usually(usual)'' called rugby or rugger. Rugby football is named ''after(???)'' Rugby School, the public school in England where it was developed. Legend has it that one day in 1823, a senior boy called William Webb Ellis ran with the ball rather ''than(???)'' kick it as was the normal way ''of(???)'' playing. "Running in" was not considered quite the done thing then but was later OK'd in the laws of Rugby Football (first published in 1846). Its rival, Association football (soccer), came later. It ''wasn't written(write)'' until 1863. Even then handling of the ball was allowed, but not catching it and running with it. In the mid 1860s they ''tried (try)'' to provide one set of laws for all football but ''there(???)'' were to many differences, mainly concerning "hacking" (kicking an opponent in the shins). The "hackers" went on to eventually play rugby football even though hacking was barred a few years later. The "anti-hackers" went on to form Association Football, which ''eventually(eventual)'' banned any handling. | Rugby football is a sport people play in many countries.
