No one is sure when or where the first person picked up a ball and ran with it. Rugby (the game) is called Rugby because it was first place to write down rules. The Rugby game was written down after William Webb Ellis picked up a ball and ran with it. He was in a football match when he grew tired of kicking the ball and he picked it up.
