Buck Shelford• Buck is a legend in rugby because he has won

over 90% of his games, and never lost as an All Black captain.

• Buck only played for 4 years/22 caps. I don’t know why, but he didn’t come back.

DURING THE GAME

During the game you need to know some things like scrums, line-outs and penalties. There are lots of other skills and rules in rugby, like passing the ball behind you and running forward and not tackling above the neck.

STADIUMS

• There are 29 stadiums in NZ. • The three stadiums that are most popular are

Eden Park, AMI Stadium & Westpac Stadium. Westpac Eden AMI Stadium Park Stadium
