As far back as the 1830s a form of rugby was being played at Rugby Public School, after pupil William Webb Ellis first picked up a football & ran with it. In 1863 the Football Association met to standardise a common set of rules between the kicking & running games but failed to meet with the approval of the rugby fraternity. Twenty-one clubs refused to join the FA & in 1871 set up their own code of practice as The Rugby Union.
