"Scrums, Lineouts & Tries - America's newest, oldest game" provides a detailed introduction to the game of rugby union, a sport that celebrates its 200th anniversary in 2023. The book is targeted at a broad audience: people of all ages who want to play for the first time or are returning to the game; parents who want more information about the sport and what it may offer their kids; girls and women looking to participate in one of the world's fastest growing sports: spectators who don't understand the rules of this fast, complex sport and want to know what they are watching; non-playing enthusiasts considering becoming a referee; university and college sports departments who may be planning to offer rugby as more than a club sport; recreation departments across the nation who want to provide access to this fast-growing activity. The international profile of rugby union will be dramatically enhanced in 2023. In addition to the 200th anniversary of the game's "birth" (in England in 1823), the Men's Rugby World Cup will be played in France in the fall. Over 500 million fans around the world are expected to tune in for the world's third-largest spectator event. Of particular relevance to the American audience is that the US will host the 2031 Men's and 2033 Women's Rugby World Cup Championships. Over the next 8 years the game will attract enormous attention from players, officials, spectators and investors and a better understanding of the game and its components is essential.
