Rugby makes return at Youth Olympics

Rugby will return to the Olympic program after a 90-year gap when the second summer Youth Olympic Games open on Saturday in Nanjing, Jiangsu province.

The 15-a-side version was played in the early years of the Olympics, but it was dropped after the 1924 Games.

In 2009 the International Olympic Committee voted to re-admit the sport in its seven-a-side form, and it will be played at the 2016 Games in Rio.
