New Zealand Schools in the 2000s: Rugby


Figure 1.-- Rugby continues to be enormously popular in New Zealand. By far the most popular sport. No where is the sport more popular. It not only is played in inter-scolastic sports, but many schools have intra-mural teams to give everyone a chace to play. In addition, there commonly are pick-up games after lunch. Rugby is also part of many school PE programs.
