History

William Webb Ellis (24 November 1806 – 24 January 1872) was an English Anglican clergyman who, by tradition, has been credited as the inventor of rugby football while a pupil at Rugby School. According to legend, Webb Ellis picked up the ball and ran with it during a school football match in 1823, thus creating the "rugby" style of play. Although the story has become firmly entrenched in the sport's folklore, it is not supported by first hand evidence, with the story emerging only after Webb Ellis's death.
The Webb Ellis Cup is presented to the winners of the Rugby World Cup [1]

History of rugby in South Africa

South Africa’s rugby history dates back to before the two British Colonies (Natal and the Cape) and the two Boer Republics (the Orange Free State and Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek) started fielding ‘provincial’ teams against one another.
The first reported match was between teams of Officers and Civil Servants in 1862.
The first club (Hamiltons) was founded in March 1875[2] and despite the four government entities with a divergence of political views and aspirations, a single combined rugby union, the South African Rugby Football Board, was formed in 1889.
They played as a united South Africa rugby entity as a SA Representative side, against the (mainly English) touring team in three matches which were later ratified as tests against what is today the British and Irish Lions. South Africa has 14 rugby unions, and its premier competition is for the Currie Cup, first played for in 1892. [3]
