What is a "scrum"?
A scrum in rugby is a way to restart the game after a rule is broken, such as a minor knock-on. It involves players from both teams forming three rows and binding together. The team that did not break the rule gets the ball, which is thrown into the middle of the scrum. The players then push against each other, trying to hook the ball with their feet and win possession for their team. The scrum is a way to get the game moving again while allowing both teams a fair chance to compete for the ball.
