I am a 15 year old girl.
I am not too tall, but I am an extremely fast runner. I am pretty tough, not afraid to get dirty at all, also average weight.

So what rugby position do you think l would play?
Also could you include a brief explination of that position.
Thanks
Flanker6 what is your problem!!

play as a back!! thats what l do. the forwards r usually the bigger stronger guys (or girls in this case) & the backs get the ball passed to them when the bigger forwards win it & run it.

im a back & a fast runner; there r usually 6 backs.

look at this diagram:

#1-8 r forwards
#10-14 r what u should play, backs

Note: #10 is called a fly-half, they organize the plays.

#15 is a full-back..kinda a boring position if u ask me
#9 is a scrum half - they start the play (pick up the ball) & r usually a smaller kid)

good luck, & have fun. l love rugby :)

l reckon playing on the Wing (No 11 and 14) is perfect for you. Wings are the finishers of play, their main job is to score tries. Get the ball and run and hard and fast as you can to the try line. Providing you can shake a few tackles off first.

if ur an extremely fast runner l would suggest u play full back (no.15) This position is normally made up the strongest & fastest player profile.
Full back - Description
The profile of a full back is to be the last line of defence within ur playing half & also to be able to run up in the line when the team is on attack. Being able to kick a ball is a skill u can learn on the job but if u have a soccer background it is a good basis. If ur not afraid of a bit agression then this position l would recommend.

To tell you the truth you should play in the backs.From a rugby coaches point of view you should play outer centre which is #13 Tana Umaga and Stirling Mortlocks position if you now them because of toughness and speed.Outer centre is like the backs body were you probally control the team you call the codes and you mostly do everything such as score tries.Hope that will help you.Nice question

backline:
wing - fast
center - tackle
flyhalf - vision and kicking
fullback - fast and kicking

take your pick
i think u would b best at wing

Based on yor description l would say impact player (Bench warmer hahaha). Ah yes its good that you are not afraid to get dirty and are tough because cutting oranges gets your hands real messy. All that EXTREME pace will be needed when oranges are to be speedily brought on for real players. On some occations you will have the honour to play linesman where again EXTREME pace is needed. If you do make an apperance on the field slotting in for an injury you will be wearing No. 16 - 22.
