Rugby's Revised Laws Available Online

The revised Laws of the Game 2009 are now available online following the International Rugby Board Council's decision to accept 10 Experimental Law Variations into Law.

The 2009 Laws in English, French, Spanish and Russian are now available on www.irb.com with the versions in Italian, Japanese and Chinese to be added shortly.

The revised Laws of the Game also include the Rulings in Law that, in some instances, have existed since 2002 and were formally incorporated into Law by the Council at its Annual meeting in Dublin on 13 May.

These amendments are highlighted in light green within the Laws of the Game and amendments include players off their feet at the tackle, offside lines for players who have detached from a maul and all players binding before the scrum engagement sequence.

The integrated set of Laws will be implemented globally from May 23 or from the start of the next domestic season where competitions transcend the implementation date.
