This document, titled '119 countries... 6.6 million players' adds together the number of registered and non-registered players as reported by each country's union. Some unions only report their registered players, i.e. those players that play for a club or region affiliated to the country's union. Other unions, such as England's [[Rugby Football Union]] (RFU), also report individuals taking part in outreach and educational programs, which would be classed as unregistered players. Thus in the 2012 figures reported by the RFU they reported 1,990,988 people playing rugby in England. That figure included 1,102,971 under 13s, 731,685 teens and 156,332 seniors. Therefore a large proportion of those recorded would have experienced rugby via educational visits to schools, playing tag or touch rugby, rather than playing on a regular basis for a club. The figures released in 2014 give an overall figure of those playing rugby union, or one of its variants, as 6,684,118, but also reports that of that total, 2.36 million are registered players, while 4.3 million are unregistered.</ref>
