Answer
Rugby is the fastest growing sport in several countries globally. It started at Rugby School in England, a public boys school that is now effectively a private schoool.
Rugby is the national sport of New Zealand and Wales. It is very popular in two states of Australia, in South Africa (particularly among the white population), in Samoa, Tonga, Fiji and Ireland, where games are usually televised free-to-air. It's big among parts of the population in Argentina, Uruguay, England and Scotland, and is a well rooted minor sport in France, Italy and Japan.
It is the official sport of the Chinese army, which has the most rugby players of any nation (but consistently does very badly at international competitions, haha Made In China...). Japan has the most school boy rugby players in the world. New Zealand has the most amateur club team players.
It is a growing sport in Korea, Canada, Taiwan, Romania, India, Eastern Europe, Northern Europe an South-East Asia, as well as of course in the The USA.
Most of the early spread of rugby is attributable to British colonialism, in countries from Argentina to New Zealand to South Africa. In Australia there was a mix of settler colonisation and colonisation by convicts. There the sport split into Australian Rules football (which is related to Irish Gaelic football, and quite different) and the original rugby. This is rather like the split in the US, where anti-British colonial feeling led to the creation of baseball and Amercian football from their root sports cricket and rugby.
In the UK, within rugby, there was a schism during the beginning of the labour movement, and Rugby Union divided from Rugby League. Union was a sport of private schools, while Rugby League became the sport of the miners, working class and labourers. Rugby League is a lot more physical, hard hitting; less technical, and with less specialised positions than rugby. Rugby League is remains very popular in two states of Australia, and in traditional mining and industrial parts of the UK. However Rugby Union is a truely international sport, although not yet on a par with soccer or basketball.

The US has been climbing well over the last 5 years. Still loses to Canada though... perhaps not for long, if there are more guys like you getting into the sport.
You can also have a look at the world IRB (International Rugby Board - like FIFA is for soccer)

Current rugby globally -
There is currently the 6 Nations Rugby Tournament going on in Europe, between France, England (the last Rugby World Cup winners), Italy, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

The Super 14 season (between 14 professional club sides from New Zealand, Australia and South Africa, which stand out as 3 of the strongest rugby nations in the world) has also just begun in the Southern Hemisphere, as it comes into autumn there.

It is Rugby World Cup year, and it's on in France this year. See -

And in Hong Kong now there is the Sevens Rugby tournament. Sevens Rugy is a faster running version of the game, more open, with only half the players. Check out the Hong Kong Rugby Sevens tournament, which is on in March.

Sevens is the national sport of Fiji. They always kick ass at it.
Beyond this, there is also Touch Rugby, a no-tackle rugby variation, that is becoming a strong sport in it's own right. It was originally just a fun training game.

Basically Rugby Union is king and global, growing all over. In most of the main playing nations it's a professional sport.
Rugby League is mostly big in Australia and the UK, but has been professional for a couple of decades.
Sevens Rugby is an off-shoot, and so is Touch Rugby; they're kind of rugby-lite, but good fun.
Aussie Rules Football and American Football grew out of Rugby Union, but are quite different sports now.
I'm glad you're getting into it. Rugby's a great sport, exciting to watch, even more exciting to play. Pure adrenalin, full contact and a whole lot more inclusive and less waiting around than American football.
We've just had a guy from Chicago join our club side here in Hiroshima. He used to be a safety in American football, and now he's loving rugby. But it's all good mate. Go hard!

How much i need to pay as customs duty if i carry LG LED LCD TV 50'' smart, 3D to India from US?
Gangadhara
Cost of TV in US is ~$800.
After 2013-08-26, Indian govt amended a law that all flat panel TV's need to pay customes of 36.05% of actual indian rate of the same TV. Its very ambiguous by this news..below are my doubts
1.How Indian value of my TV calculated.
e.g
-i am taking a TV which was used one year in US
-If i am taking TV whose brand not found in India (my case is LG so there should not be issue)
- Indian TV's use PAL analog tuner but in US all TV's come with NTSC. how valuvation is done? i need to spend INR10000 more to buy good converter for this. I mean to say is that fair to calculate price directly to indian product.
2. If i stay in US more than 2 or 3 years and take used TV, how it will help me.
Can anyone say how much i need to pay as custom duty for my TV with above scenario.
There should some difference in calculating valuation on TV's from US and other Asia countries like Singapore, Malaysia and Dubai.
TV's from US have lot of constraint like its comes with NTSC and works with 110 v.
Whereas TV's from Singapore, Malaysia and Dubai can be used directly in India without any converter.
@shana
There are few airlines which reject baggae on weight alone. in that case i can pay extra money to take it.
E.g: British airways reject baggage on Weight as well as Dimension. Though weight is less than BA guidelines its wont fit in dimension . so we cant take this in BA.
- Emirates reject baggage only on weight. But we need to pay extra money to take this to india in Emirates.
Answer
If you are more than 2 years in USA you can avail Transfer of Residence (TR), if you are planning to return back for good . Even if you avail TR benefit, it's not certain whether you will pay reduced duty or not.
If you have used TV, the value will reduce much more and if you have receipt to prove your case that would help.
With Emirates they allow it to carry if you combine two baggage to make 107 inches (One piece 62 and another 45 inches W + D + H).
