Fisher & Phillips LLP — International Remote Work in the Age of Digital Nomads

MIND THE GAP
Did you know rugby, one of the world’s most famous sports began in Britain? England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland formed among the earliest national teams ever created. Rugby originated in 1823 during a game of football when one of the players decided to pick up a ball and run with it. The Rugby World Cup trophy is now named after this player.
Trivia:
What was the name of this player?
The first person to submit the correct answer to babc@babcphl.com will receive one complimentary ticket to either our rugby or football event.
