Why isn't rugby an Olympic sport?

Rugby is a sport that is popular around the world, but it is not an Olympic sport. The reason for this is due to the rules of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The IOC has strict criteria that a sport must meet in order to be included in the Olympic Games, and rugby has not met those criteria. Other reasons why rugby is not an Olympic sport include the perception that rugby is too physical and dangerous, and the lack of unified rules and regulations among different national rugby associations. Despite these challenges, there is still a possibility that rugby could become an Olympic sport in the future.
