Rugby is both a sport, and an English town.
Rugby was originally a town, then a sport, as well as a school. In England they view any sport that has evolved from soccer as a member of a family of sports called football(Soccer, Rugby, Football(American), Australian Football, Gaelic Football). In the 1800's is was common for the schools to play "football" against each other. Many schools had their own version of football, and games would be played as a half of the one school's version, and then a half of the other school's version. The Rugby School's version was called "Rugby Football".
