Edit: I should also add, that my examples are very personal and anecdotal and only crudely illustrative. I don't mean to imply that 'Rugby Players' are 'great leaders' or that 'Leaders must have a team sports background' - not in the least. It's just something that I, a non-athlete who came to such things later in life wherein I was way more introspective about it than your average 19 year old, picked up some perspective from being embedded with these groups. It's highly personalised, but I would hope there's enough common ground among us for people to grasp the connotation.
