This document provides an overview of the basic rules and positions in women's rugby football. It explains that there are 15 positions split between the pack (forwards) and backs. The pack supports the backs who run with the ball to score. Common penalties are described like knock-ons when the ball goes forward, being offside, and high tackles. Key parts of gameplay involve rucks to win possession, scrums to restart play, and lineouts where the ball is thrown in. Scoring a try requires grounding the ball with control in the opponent's in-goal area.
