I posted this in the wrong section of the forum! Sorry. Is it possible to move it to "Universitas Rugbeia"?
Hi,
I'm about to play my first Rugby Tournament ever. I tried out for the school team and was accepted (probably because they needed more players, not because I was any good ). I've never played rugby before and our first tournament is coming up and I'm starting to get a bit nervous. We are playing sevens rugby U19 and my position is probably going to be a forward, more specifically a prop. Since my knowledge is limited in the area, could someone explain briefly what a prop's objective is in Sevens? Is it a very difficult position? Also, will prop be a good position for me? (16 years old, 190 cm and 95 kg, not extremely fit but I'm not a couch potato either.) I know it is difficult to judge this by some stats, but generally speaking. Lastly, I've noticed my passing skills are a bit...emm awful. I understand that passing is an important part of Rugby, but as a prop will I do a lot of "difficult" passing e.g very long passes etc.?
Best Regards,
