The quote I recall from my university days is, "It takes leather balls to play rugby."

Now, I have a question, the answer(s) to which will help me enjoy my footy much more. Can some of you tell me what and when all of these cups and leagues are ? For instance... the Ellis Cup is the "World Cup" played as a single tournament every four years, in September/October, right ??? How are tems chosen for inclusion ? What are the other leagues, cups, seasons ? Thanks in advance.
