It depends on several factors: your natural ability at the sport, your athleticism, your determination, your dedication, and possibly some luck.

Just do your best and I’m sure hard work will pay off.

no way, im 17 and this is my first year. i play in high school and i am really good at it. the sport is simple, i learned the rules in like 3 weeks. and its fun as hell too, way funner than football if you ask me cuz everyone gets to run the ball, and everyone gets tackles. such a kick @ss sport.

by the book, “Rugby for Dummies” it tells you everything

how long is a piece of string. Rugby like any contact sports depends on much you put in. The truth behind rugby is you can’t hide out on the field, you will be found by someone sooner or later. Read, watch you tube videos, train, practice and ask are all the area’s you will need to cover in order to develope into a great rugby player. If this all seems to much for you, then ask yourself if you are serious about Rugby, because what i have mentioned is just the minimum to show your committment to the game. Good luck!!!

Depends on the person, but even the worst player in the world improves the more they play and practice.
