Why is rugby considered a white man's sport?

As a rugby enthusiast, I've often wondered why rugby is considered a white man's sport. Upon further research, I found that this perception largely stems from the sport's historical and cultural roots in predominantly white, British-boarding schools. Additionally, the lack of diversity in many teams and leagues only serves to reinforce this stereotype. However, it's important to recognize the growing participation of people from various ethnic backgrounds in rugby. We should all strive to break down these barriers and celebrate the diversity that enriches the sport we love.
