there are 22 players per side 18 on the ground 4 on the bench(used in rotation{interchange}) 3 in the middle, six in the back line 6 in the forward line 3 on ballers which includes all three zones(full back line, half back line, center line, half forward line, full forward line, on ballers and the interchange bench) the aim of the game is to kick the ball through the two middle posts which = 6 points either side of them = 1 point \n\nthe ways you can dispose of the ball is either to kick it or handball it to one of your  team mates it is a contact sport and given the speed these players travel at will put someone like us on our bottoms it is more dangours more then all other contact sports in australia for example leauge and union \n\nfor more information see http://afl.com.au/

Assuming you mean rugby union, Wikipedia has an excellent summary of the game.\n\nSports Authority and Modell's won't have rugby gear.  The internet is your best bet.  \n\nThe only tip I can share is that if you can't avoid being tackled, run into the tackler low, shoulder first, and at full speed.  Make him wish he'd let you run by him.

For me the best way to learn about football has been simply to watch it! I have picked up everything I need to know and occasionally even commentators have to check things so it isn't the end of the world if a situation comes up and you don't quite know how they will sort it out or why a ref/official made a certain decision (but hey, even when you do understand everything, you'll still be at a loss to explain some of their decisions!) But anyway I have learnt almost everything I know about the beautiful game from watching it, and occasionally consulting with anyone else in the room who may know more than me!\n\nIf you would like to read about the rules, or as they are more properly known, the Laws of the Game, they are all here (and are updated and revised when FIFA decides to change something, like the offside law):\n\nhttp://www.fifa.com/en/regulations/regulation/0,1584,3,00.html\n\nVAMOS ARGENTINA!!!

I am assuming you are American, so think of rugby like American football. Two "lines of scrimmage" hitting against each other, wit hthe purpose to break through the lines and score in an end zone. Played on a rectangular field, 13 or 15 playes per side.\nAustralian football is more like basketball - in terms of the way the players move. Playes play more of a position style game, and must dribble (in Aussie football we call it bouncing) or pass the ball with foot or hand. Lots of high jumping to catch the ball in contest. Score by kicking ball through posts. Large oval field18 players per side.\nBoth games are supported passionately in Oz. Little if any padding is worn by the players. Lots of consistent play and hard tackles.

Just go to Google and type in "Auskick". That is the Junior AFL program here.
