A rugby field is rectangular in shape. It measures approximately 120 x 70 meter in size. It has two 10 meters lines and a halfway line. This is the center area of the playing surface. There are goal posts, and a crossbar that stands at least 3.4 meters above the ground. The goal posts measure 20 meters in length. These posts are typically made of metal or wood. These posts are curved to keep the ball in place as it is kicked up into the air.
You need two teams to play rugby. Each team must have 15 players. If a team is given possession of a ball, it must move it by passing or running. Sometimes, players may kick the ball through the goalposts. If a player attempts to kick the soccer ball through the goalposts, it is considered a penalty.
A player must touch a ball into the opponent's in goal area in order to score a "try". A try is worth three goals for the home team. The opposing team must be at their 25-yard line to score a touchdown. The game will resume at the halfway line after a successful try.
The rugby field can be divided into two sections, the field-of-play and the in goal area. The try line is the vertical line that runs through the middle of the field. The goal posts are located at both ends of the field. The goalposts can be found 10 meters away from the try line. The goalposts are 3.4 meters high.
Rugby fields are divided into five zones: the in-goal area, the dead ball line, the halfway line, the goal line, and the sideline. These five areas are between 5.5 and 24 meters wide. It can vary in width depending on how large the in-goal area is.
If the ball hits the goalposts, it is not counted towards a team's point. The team can however choose to restart a game. A scrum is also possible in the middle. The ball is protected by the players of the non-offending side. This allows teammates push the maul in the desired direction.
Rugby has several penalties. One of these penalties, a knock-on, is one. A knock-on occurs when a player is tackled and the ball is knocked forward. If the ball is accidentally knocked onto, the offending team member will be penalized.
Another common foul is a forward pass. A forward pass is considered a deliberate rather than accidental pass. If the ball is in the possession of the carrier, the ball can be run forward to ensure that a player holds onto it. Afterwards, the player must release the ball.
Other fouls are offside, too far forward, and ball in contact with the body. Any of these could lead to a free kick.
Two halves of 40-minute rugby are played. A point is awarded to the winning team after each halves. Otherwise, the match ends with a dead ball.
