Answer 1

the great thing about rugby is how little you need.not like hockey or american football.boots,socks,shorts,mouth guard,maybe some tape,if your in the tight 5.

Answer 2

1) boots : some JJB's sell kooga rugby boots in adults for approx   £30, and juniors £25

2)shorts. cotton draw string.

3) depending on what position you play. you may need rugby gloves, head-guard and IRB checked body pads
