How do Australian high school rugby leagues work?
Rugby is one of the most popular sports in Australia. It is played in high school leagues across the country. These leagues are organised by local governing bodies and are divided into divisions based on the size and strength of the teams. Each team is made up of 15 players, who compete against each other in a series of matches throughout the season. The league rules and regulations are set by the governing body, and include rules for tackling, scrummaging and line-outs. The league also decides on the length of the season, and the playoffs and finals. Ultimately, the team that wins the most matches and accumulates the most points is declared the winner.
