We want Rugby at the Olympic Games:

Because it is one of the best life time sports of all time and shows incredible team work and is played worldwide..

Good, fast-paced open sport

cause its the best sport

One of the greatest spectator sports and increasing in popularity day by day

Beats Lawn Bowling

Rugby is the ultimate team sport played around the world.

History and the world wide inclusion of the greatest game on earth

the world cup for rugby is the 3rd wached sports event, also a good veriety of teams can compete with eachother making for balanced olympics each year.

A true team sport....no stars....just teamwork

Rugby is a true team sport, support from team members is essential for a winning team.

Entertaining and is very exciting to watch and should be included.

best game on earth

this sport is amazing its one of the only soirts i wach rugby changed my life

Rugby should be in the Olympics because it will get the Olympics a greater audience

Because it truly is the most team style sport out there

I think that rugby should be an Olympic sport because Rugby is a fast paced, interactive sport. Not only is there the physical aspect of it, but there is a social aspect to the game that is equally as important.

Cause its kickass

One of the best sports in the world. would be amazing to see at the olympics

it is the best sport ever!!!!

yeah!

One of the most oldest and greatest sports of all time

Best sport in the world

Cause its the most amazing sport in the world :)

WORLD WIDE SPORT

Rugby 7s is the ideal sport for the olympics because it is: -Faced paced -High scoring -A short game (easy to televise) -On a pitch (can sell many tickets in the stadium) -Short tournament (i.e: IRB 7s World Cup). Fans do not need to come back over and over again. -Has high athletic talent -Many more!!!!

because its amazing and should be played if sports like soccer are in the olympics..

Because my dad told me it should be.

It isn't a judged sport, the winner is the winner and it takes a true athlete to compete.

a game played all over the world.... no boundaries of where the players come from!! at the Olympics this would just be one more great event for everyone to come together.... and enjoy the game!!

It is the most entertaining, challenging and fun sport out there!!!

Its the most athletic global sport on the planet with participation everywhere on every contintent

because its the best contact sport there is and its a feast for the eyes

Because it is the most entertaining sport out there!!

Because it is a very dynamic fast moving game that spectators love. At the olympic level it can be played by the highest level athletes in the world with winning attitudes and winning abilities. It is one of the best fast moving spectator sports in the World.

It will not only increase the awareness of rugby, but will also get the olympics more spectators, and money(which is what everything boils down too).

why shouldnt be

It is a sport that is one of the fastest growing in Canada and it is played across the globe. Why not have a sport as phyiscally demanding as rugby, be considered olympic worthy.

because it is already a major recognized world sport like soccer and it has much more merit over some existing sports like let's say softball, beach volleyball and others.

Rugby is played in just about every Country in the world. Those of us who play Rugby believe it is the best sport in the world and deserves to be part of the Olympics.

It is one of the most international games in the world and employs a high skill level and team coordination. Unlike many Olympic sports which cater to geographic or income levels.

It is a true team sport!

It is played regularly in over 100 countries and many smaller countries who are relatively new to rugby are competing well in International Seven -a-side events. It is affordable to all with no expensive equipment.

Rugby should be in the Olympics because it is a sport based on teamwork. There are no individuals 7 or 15 players working as one for a common goal.

Rugby is one of the most watched and enjoyed contact sport played all over the world. It should be an Olympic sport!!

Popularity, revenue, but most of all, unity in the spirit of competition.

It's the world's best sport!

I think rugby is like any other sport if not more! I think its a sport that is loved all over the world. It should definatly be added onto the olympic games

Rugby is the definition of pure athletisism and a model of how the sporting community should run. Rugby plays give everything and go hard during a game but unlike other sports the men and women are then able to sit down and be social afterwards making the rugby community incrediably unique and strong. This is not just a sport, it is a life style and deserves a spot in the Olympic Games.

Its one of the most popular and fastest growing games in the country. Its exciting to watch and even more to play.

Because it is an involved sport that takes just as much skill and talent to play as any other olympic sport.

Because it's mroe of a sport than half the sports in the olympics.
