I need a list of all the rugby league(only) equipment and any other facts will be useful.?

Answer 1

You don't need a scrum cap, that's only if you already have a head injury or are playing Union were they tend to stand on your head. League is not like that.

Why do you need compression shorts? An ordinary cotton pair will do. However do wear some sort of light body protection like in the link.

A good mouthguard is essential and make sure you don't skimp, go to a sports shop for advice as there are different sizes.

Also it would go amisss to get some shin guards but I didn't play with them to be honest.

Lastly if you have a problem catching the ball when it is wet you can get some stick mitts, they will also keep your hands warm to a degree.

As for playing, listen to what your coach tells you, tackle round the hips and with your head to one side. When you get the ball run hard and straight and with determination, don't pass if it might not get to your team mate keep hold of it for the tackle.

Lastly, try to enjoy yourself, it is meant to be fun when you are just starting out.

Good luck playing the greatest game!!
