One of the fast-rising stars of the Melbourne Storm is talented fullback Billy Slater. At this stage of his career, the promising 27-year-old has been compared to legends of Ruby League such as Dally Messenger. He is a force to be reckoned with in the National Rugby League (NRL) and his fan base doesn't only include rugby fanatics hailing from NSW to Queensland but extends to the rest of the rugby-loving world. League pundits are impressed by his maneuvers on the field as well as the titles he has reaped throughout his stint with Melbourne which he is staunchly loyal too. Billy Slater is such a sought-after asset of the Melbourne Storm that an off-contract Slater creates a bidding frenzy among vying clubs just waiting to snag him away from the club and into their fold.
Billy displayed his interest in the sport at a young age of 4 by playing for the Innisfail Brothers Club in Queensland. His hometown is proud of their famous football hero that last year the local sports oval at Callendar Park was named the Billy Slater Oval. It's an honor that no other 26-year-old in the history of the league has accomplished. Among Slater's other achievements, carrying the try record scoring for Storm with 115 and being voted the best player in the world by winning the Rugby League International Football (RLIF) Awards and the Golden Boot Awards both in 2008 are also his career milestones.
For those who don't have a passing acquaintance of the league and its roster of superstar players, the up and coming legend of the Storm just signed a new deal with the team and it looks like he'll be sticking by and with them. Billy Slater is a formidable powerhouse who takes a game by the horns yet also knows how to be team player. Though he was responsible for a sloppy pass that lead to the victory of the Kiwis in the 2008 World Cup final, by no means is Slater invulnerable to mistakes, yet he is the kind of athlete that doesn't let one snag define or ruin their game or the rest of their career. He has his share of critics and detractors from other clubs, but this just reinforces the fact that he is certainly a lethal figure when it comes down to separating the winners from the losers.
Slater has gone a long way from being a cheeky Innisfail junior footy to parade-worthy rugby league great. From 'Billy the Pest,' his exceptional skills and signature chip-and-chase technique earned him the title 'Billy the Kid' and the admiration of channel 9 veteran commentator Ray Warren while the rest of the rugby league world watched the captivating rookie dominate the arena and followed his flourishing career in awe. Today Slater is considered a poster boy of the NRL and his choice to stay until 2014 with Storm is inspirational not only to the rest of the players in the club but also to new raw talent that want to penetrate the team and play alongside this phenomenal athlete.

Funding the USA Rugby Sevens Olympic Program
The 2011-12 IRB Sevens tournament is shaping as arguably the most critical in USA Rugby's history. Since rugby union Sevens was announced as an Olympic sport in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, the game has been gradually gaining momentum. In October 2010 USA Rugby was made a Full Member of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), in doing so starting the process that will put the full resources of the USOC behind the USA Sevens program.
The USOC funds all programs on a four-year cycle, however wary of the developing programs of China and Russia, the rugby program is receiving support a year earlier in the way of access to training facilities, and modest full-time training contracts. The USA Eagles finished 12th in the 2010-11 IRB Sevens standings, however will need to show they can be a medal chance in 2016 to attract a share of the $43.5million+ funding from the USOC.
USOC funding for National Governing Bodies (NGBs) is based on performance. NGBs will be split into three categories. Those characterised as "foundation" organisations will get funding priority. Foundation NGBs are those such as swimming and track & field, who will generate the most medals at an Olympics. Medal Opportunity NGBs are second in line. These NGBs are likely to have a chance to win a medal in coming Olympics given enough financial support.
The third and set of NGBs are defined as "development" organisations. These organisations are unlikely to receive aid for their teams from the USOC, instead receiving support for organisational development and administrative support in areas such as marketing and governance.
The process of evaluating which tier USA Rugby will come into has already started. The USOC takes into account team performances, the medals available, the sport's relevance to the American public and the resources asked for by the NGB.
The USOC will allocate funds across those three categories after reviewing each NGB's high-performance plan, which outlines what programs an NGB plans to run for its elite athletes and how many medals it believes it's capable of winning at a future Olympics. That process will begin for summer sports organizations in the next two months.
Effectively this means that NGBs such as USA Rugby cannot be completely reliant on the USOC for their success, and instead they must develop programs that generate revenue via increased participation and higher profiles.
There are already positive signs for the developing USA Rugby program. They are the hosts of the 2012 Junior World Rugby Trophy where a win will see them promoted to compete in the Junior World Cup in 2013. They are one of the foundation teams who compete in all events on the IRB Rugby Sevens tournament, and they host a highly- successful leg of the Sevens tour.
On top of this, participation in rugby grew by 350% between 2004 and 2011. The US has more registered players than Wales and Scotland in absolute terms. Perhaps more significantly for an Olympic sport, the US now has more female rugby players than any other country in the world.
There is no question that winning an Olympic medal will translate to massive interest and increased participation in rugby union in the US. However, rightly or wrongly, the USOC does not fund sports for participation or development. It has a clear and unequivocal mandate to win Olympic medals. Securing a decent slice of USOC funding as a Medal Chance is crucial if rugby union in the USA is to move from a largely participation sport towards the professionalism enjoyed by its counterparts worldwide.

A Look At The Rugby World Cup Event
The Rugby World Cup is currently taking place in New Zealand and runs between 9th September and 23rd October. How did this event begin though? This article gives an overview of the history behind the Rugby World Cup. From the initial idea through to the current tournament in New Zealand 2011.
The very first initial discussions between the relevant parties regarding the Rugby World Cup were initiated and considered in 1979, nonetheless, it was not until late in the year of 1983 when the Australian Rugby Union and the equivalent New Zealand Rugby Union associations handed in proposals to the International Rugby Football Board (IRFB). The world governing body for this sport. Not one of the two associations was actually aware of the other countries proposal; Australia, it is said, had planned to host a tournament on their Bicentenary year in 1988. New Zealand had already gone ahead and suggested the previous year as a starting point with their negotiations.
The two similar proposals had been rejected but Australia and New Zealand then subsequently grouped their own resources to carry out a single unified feasibility review. The findings of this independent review were put forward at the IRFB's annual meeting during March of the year 1985. Australia and New Zealand had agreed on 1987 as being the right year to go ahead. This then eliminated any clash together with the popular Olympics and FIFA World Cup events. Further to this a vote took place related to this proposal when the IRFB got together in the French capital Paris.
The vote among the IRFB members came out in favour of a World Cup by simply six votes to the two against it. The Rugby World Cup is currently recognised as being the third largest sports related event right behind the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup.
South Africa won the last event in their own country. The tournament goes from strength to strength and, as mentioned above, is currently taking place in New Zealand with Australia and South Africa amongst the favourites to take the win. Australia have lost one of their opening games and it is not usual to see a team lose a game and go on to win. In the world of sport anything can happen though and they will still be hoping to take the win near the end of October if they can overcome South Africa this weekend.

David Williams - Rugby Leagues Cover Boy
When it comes to raw talent and magnetic charisma, the Australia Rugby League does not have a dearth of clear-cut examples. David Williams, in particular, was voted by Outsports Readers as the hottest athlete in the world and won the King of the Hardwood competition in 2009. He beat out 63 other jocks to clinch the title in a contest spearheaded by Mariner Duck Guy which is closely similar to the NCAA men's basketball popularity contest.
Williams participated in a 'Gods in Football' campaign to raise awareness of and money for breast cancer research-and in the process stood out from the rest of the hot Aussie athletes who also showcased their chiseled assets and physique in a colourful calendar and DVD. William's magnetic appeal shouldn't precede his talent of the game, where he can shift between wing and centre roles if necessary. Impressive athletic skills run in the Williams family because in fact David is the younger brother of John Williams, who plays for the Cronulla Sharks.
The 'Wolfman' with his signature beard knows when to clean up for a calendar photo shoot yet is ready to get down to business when it comes to no-nonsense, in-your-face rugby. He may look like a pretty boy but he is the real deal (and according to reputable league insiders, not gay). There are detractors but his following certainly outnumbers them. Williams has had a cult following since 2008 ever since he scored a try in the NRL Grand Final where his team won against Melbourne Storm.
Another notable career milestone was being selected to be part of the Australia squad for the Rugby League World Cup in 2008 at Dairy Famers Stadium where he made his trial run against Papua New Guinea. In that same competition Williams was one of a few players to score in the green and gold a hat-trick on debut aside from making 3 try scores. The slot to play in the World Cup Finals against New Zealand in November 22, 2008 was providential to Williams but a setback to Brent Tate, his teammate who was the original choice but had to back out due to a hip injury.
Funny and laid-back, Williams again showed his charitable streak by dying his beard pink in a match against Penrith Panthers in 2009 and encouraging his Manly team-mates to do the same so that the team can raise money for the Women of League Round.
In 2010 Williams suffered an injury at the beginning of the season during an opening head-on clash with the Tigers. His 2010 NRL campaign became bleak when a training injury sidelined him during pre-match training on the eve of that game. Coach Des Hasler believed that Williams could've staged a comeback if only he aced his fitness and medical tests ahead of the Dragons match. The rebounding player subsequently had surgery and was back on his feet in no time. Today Williams enjoys the security and the perks of a three-year deal for St. Helens at the Super League.

How to Properly Perform a Tackle in Rugby
The front-on tackle has the most risk for a player to get injured and happens most frequently during a game. The defending player must deny the attacking player space and options to dominate the tackle situation - who would ever forget the Jonah Lomu versus Mike Catt situation during the 1995 World Cup in South Africa. Important points to remember during the tackle are:
Follow the attacking player - run towards his shoulder furthest from the touchline.
Stay square to the attacking player for as long as possible - deny him space.
Do not cross your feet.
Hold your face up during the tackle - do not drop your chin to avoid concussion and neck injury.
Keep your eyes open and focus on your opponent - look to where you are going to make contact with the attacking player.
Focus between the chest and hips ( core ) of the attacker - footwork can be deceiving.
Emphasise on your back position - this allows to get a lower, stronger and more powerful position to make the tackle.
Align your head either side of the attacker and not in front of his body do not make contact with the top of your head.
Stay on the balls of the feet to avoid being side stepped.
Follow the direction of the hit with your head.
Use shorter, faster steps as you approach the attacker - do not plant your feet.
Take the stance of a boxer, elbows low and hands up to reinforce leverage and force of contact.
The same foot and shoulder must follow the dip and step into the tackle.
Wrap the arms around the attacker pull him and drive from your legs.
Put the whole body into the contact for greater force and power.
Maintain leg drive to allow forward momentum
The side-on tackle is safer with less confrontation- the risk of injury is lesser, but the same body positions and general techniques apply as mentioned above. Emphasise that the defender should never under any circumstances hit the attacker with his head - this can cause concussion and neck injury.
The smother tackle is advance tackle where the defending player is more upright in defence and attempts to put his arms around the attacker's arms and ball. This is to prevent the attacker from passing or release it to score a try. The same steps, body positions and general techniques should apply as discussed under front - on tackle.
The tackle is performed above the waist level, and below shoulder height.
The smother tackle is not recommended for and inexperienced players, as the risk of injury is higher
All tackles above the shoulder line are not allowed and be penalised accordingly. Lifting and dropping - a variation of which is the " spear tackle" are also dangerous and can cause serious injury.
Defence is an important strategy of the modern game and players need to stay injury free to entertain us week after week. The tackle is an important part of a team's defence strategies therefore coaches should practice the basics of the tackle and players must ensure they use the correct technique.
