Watching sports games, why is rugby both pointed?

Rugby originated in Rugby in England in 1823 and is popular in the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Japan and other countries. Its original name was Rugby Football, or Rugby for short. It is called rugby in China because it is shaped like an olive.

It is said that when a student played soccer, he was afraid of losing, so he held the ball to the door, which inspired the people in the audience, and since then, rugby has become popular. Now it has developed into a world sports event, and the Rugby World Cup, together with the Olympic Games and the Football World Cup, is known as the world's three major sports events.

In fact, the shape of the rugby ball was round at first, but later it was found that the shape of the two tips of the oval was easier to hold and run than a circle, and it was not easy to roll down, which could better reflect the level of the athlete, so the round ball was changed to an oval with the two ends pointed and the middle circle was round. When rugby came to North America from Europe, the shape of the ball was slightly improved, turning into the slightly smaller oval ball we use today. Currently, there are two main types of rugby:

Rugby and American football. The American style is a bit smaller and longer than the English style. Rugby is known as a "savage sport played by gentlemen", whereas American football is known as a "savage sport played by savages".

So why is the shape of a rugby ball made with two pointed ends?

1. This shape can make the ball jump irregularly, increase uncertainty, and ensure the playability and strength of the football. The rugby ball is made in the shape of two ends with the tip wide in the middle, so that the direction of the ball when it lands is more irregular, and the intensity of the ball grabs is increased.

2. Because rugby is mainly grasped, grasped, and held by hand. If the ball is round, then with one side holding the ball, it will be difficult for the other team to grab it, and the game will not be so exciting.

3. Let the players hold the ball better. Rugby shooting requires a lot of skill, otherwise it will be kicked crookedly. The midline of the ball is for the quarterback to pass the ball better.

When passing, you can use a special trick to make the ball look like a cannonball, keep the tip forward, and spin the ball quickly. This kind of passing is fast, accurate, and stable, which is good for the team's performance and the audience's appreciation.

This shape is better to hold the ball, and the passing speed is also very fast, people can move quickly, so that the ball beats irregularly, and the game is more beautiful.

This ball is mainly grasped when it is used, and it is very convenient to grab it if it is made into this shape, which will make the game more exciting.

It is because such a ball is easier to hold, allows people to run quickly, reflects the ability of the athlete, and makes the game more beautiful.
