Rugby League Roots Roots of rugby league can be traced to early football history. More than 100 years ago, football was very popular in private schools. Each school had its own set of rules and depended on the playing field. The rules could be largely grouped into handling or kicking forms of football. These rules were later codified by The Rugby Football Union (RFU) and Football Association respectively. The origin of rugby football was in the England-based Rugby School. Rugby League Name Rugby league got its name from the breakaway faction of England's Rugby Football Union in 1895. Both the unions played rugby football League with the same set of rules until similar breakaway factions took place in Australia and New Zealand in 1907 and 1908. This led to the formation of Rugby Football Leagues. Over the years, rugby rules changed and as a result, rugby league and rugby union are two different sports.
