This is a simple way of encouraging rugby-loving children to read more this week. And to read with their families or friends.
The RBS Six Nations tournament begins on Saturday. The Daily Telegraph are running a fantasy rugby league, where people can choose 15 players for their team, from across all six teams. Players are given points for what they achieve in their games.
Whoever chooses the best 15 players in this year's tournament can win £10,000. You can set up a league for you and your friends, school mates or team mates,
Encourage children to take part, pitching them against their friends. This is where the reading comes in.
There are loads of guides to the Six Nations on line and in newspapers at the moment. Rugby World. The Rugby Paper. The Telegraph. The Times. Each country has their own website too.
The children may want to have a look at these - and have a good read - to make sure they choose the most effective team.
Teachers could even challenge class against class in school to see which class knows the most about rugby union. If you put them in the direction of some rugby reading a fantasy team or league could work for them.
You can take part here. It's free.
Good luck.
