In my exploration of rugby, I've found that sevens rugby and regular rugby, while similar, have key differences. Sevens rugby is a faster, shorter game with only seven players per team, as opposed to the 15 in regular rugby. This version is played in two seven-minute halves, much shorter than the 40-minute halves in regular rugby. Interestingly, scoring is the same in both, but sevens rugby often results in higher scores due to the open field. Lastly, in sevens rugby, conversions must be drop-kicked, adding an extra challenge compared to regular rugby where place kicking is allowed.
