Best sport in the world!!

tradition, a good clean sport

Rugby is a sport that consists of athleticism, skill, and perseverance just as any other sport in the Olympics, thus it should be part of it. Also it has a great fan base, the fans support teams in harmony and and are devoted enough to travel long distances to see their team play. This would bring extra revenue into the Olympic organization, and little extra work need be done to accommodate the rugby games, they can play on football pitches. Hence there is no reason, athletic , financial, or any other why rugby should not be included in the Olympic games.

Because it deserves it, football, basketball, handball are all already olympic, why not rugby too??

recently pro it has that amateur spirit playing for friendship it has an increasing popularity that olympics needs today

Rugby has all the Olympic values in one game. Its a joke its not already part of the make-up.

The show must go on !!

Because it's hosting human values that stick to the olympic spirit like no other sport does.

True team sport which epitomises the spirit of the Olympic Games ethos.

Pratiqué en son temps par les pères de l'olympisme, le rugby est un sport exemplaire de fair play et d'engagement. Sa version à 7 est dynamique et festive !

Do I really need to say?! At least a 7's format would be a fantastic addition to the Olympics.

The Ultimate Team sport that reflects all the values that the Olympics (stood) stands for....

It is now a global spôrt with many more participants than many existing olympic sports

The question should be: Why shouldn't rugby be an olympic sport. If Ping Pong can be an olympic sport, then rugby should too!
