The Jacaranda Cup
Organised by the Rugby Union of
sponsored by Jacaranda Airlines
a subsidiary of The Central Himyari Airways
The annual rugby tournament, the prestigious Jacaranda Cup is soon to begin. The worlds greatest rugby clubs from around the world have qualified and will enter into a knockout tournament until one club stands to take home the Jacaranda Cup. This competition will begin soon and will be hosted within the Federation of the .

OOC: Just like last year's thing. Anybody can enter as many clubs as they wish (Probably around 3-4, depending on your population you could have more or less) and these clubs would have qualified by typically winning their own national league/tournament.

General rules in the group stage:
1. There will be 6 matches per pool. Each team will play with each other.
2. Each win will be awarded 3 points and each draw will be awarded 1.
3. The club with the most points from each pool will proceed to the knockout phase.

I know I may be butchering the rugby setup with this, but I know my football (soccer) rules in cups and championships better than the rugby ones.

So for the matches themselves:
Coin Flip to decide which team starts:

Team that wins coin flip enters Stage 1 with ball.

1. Run with ball:
Roll die.
1-2 opposition gains the ball (and enters Stage 1 with ball)
3-4 enter scrum
5-6 roll for try

2. If SCRUM is entered:
Roll die
1-3 opposition gains the ball
4-6 ball is maintained return to step 1.

3 [a]. If team achieves roll for TRY:
Roll die.
1-2 fail
3-6 TRY achieved +4 points

3 . NOTE: if a 2 roll is achieved re-roll.
5-6 becomes a ''Drop Goal'' +1 points.

4. If a TRY is achieved:
roll 1 die for conversion.
1-3 fail
4-6 conversion achieved +2 points

Team that scored TRY or drop kick, opposition enters phase 1 with ball.

10 total runs are made per ''match''.
