Wow. Play rugby, see the world!
Or, as one of the bumper stickers I had said, "Support your local hooker. Play Rugby."
The hooker, for those who might not know, is the chap in middle of the scrum who is responsible for kicking the ball back to the second row so it can be moved out to the scrum half. He's held up by two wide-bodies in the front row, called props.

Aslo called in Italy "Piloni" or "Ciccioni" (fatman) and in the "old" non professional rugby they are fat for real.

I've always played Hooker in rugby since I'm 5'4" and stout, but after my neck injury my doctor's banned me from playing for at least a year.
I think I need one of those bumper stickers. 
That kid is really lucky and I wish him all the best. Here's hoping he gets a really good scholarship!
