Rugby League Shirt : The full-contact team sport of Rugby Football is believed to have originated in 1823, at the Rugby School, in Warwickshire, England. Coming a long way over the years, this sport has evolved since.
With the formation of a governing and law-making body in the International Rugby Board (IRB) in 1886, the game received individuality and spread to many countries. With the disbanding from the Rugby Football Union (RFU) in 1895, to set up the Northern Rugby Football Union (NRFU), two major codes of rugby were then followed, namely rugby union and rugby league. Rugby League is better known as Northern Union after 1922, and today it has established itself worldwide as a popular recreational sport, played at both international and domestic levels.
