 A student named William Webb Ellis, who was annoyed by a kick-off mistake and whipped it up, picked up the ball and ran to the goal. Although this action foul, but caused the audience's interest. Since then in the school's football match, hold the ball ran things happen frequently and gradually spread. Later, after some enthusiastic studies and improvements, it gradually developed into a new movement. Because it is a football-derived movement that has started to develop from Rugby, it is called "Rugby Football."

However, after careful examination by later historians, the story was found to be utterly non-existent, but the power of legends was so powerful that it had become so popular that nowadays there is also a stone tablet inscribed on Rugby School, "This stone commemorates the exploit of William Webb Ellis. "This monument honors the bravery of W.Wellis. Even the highest honor of rugby, the trophy of the Rugby World Cup rugby world cup is named after Webb Ellis, known as the Webb Ellis Cup

The ball used at first was made by blowing up the pig's bladder after it was dried in the sun. The shape of the ball was ellipsoidal, which is different from the spherical shape of a soccer ball, thus increasing the uncertainty of rolling the ball. Sports are attractive places.
