Competition Rules

rugby
The rules stipulate that when passing the ball, it is not allowed to pass forward, but can only be passed back or horizontally. When the attacking team member exceeds the holding team member to receive the ball, it is deemed offside, and the opposing team member will kick a free kick from the offside location. The commonly used passing method is to pass the ball low with both hands. When the player holding the ball is attacked or blocked by the opponent and cannot move forward, the ball must be immediately released and cannot be passed to the same team member again. The ball that has been abandoned by the player holding it can be contested by both players. During the game, players who do not hold the ball shall not collide or obstruct them. Players holding the ball can be prevented from advancing by methods such as grasping, holding, and throwing, and can engage in legal collisions. However, only shoulder to shoulder collisions are allowed, and collisions with the chest or back are not allowed. Kicking, hitting, and tripping are important fouls; After a foul, the opposing team member will kick a free kick at the location of the foul. The secondary offense is to compete for the ball at the foul location. When the ball is out of bounds, the opposing team member throws the ball into the field at the point where the ball is out of bounds. The forward players of both sides form a vertical line between 5-15 yards away from the sideline, facing the sideline. The two teams are 2 feet apart. When the throwing team member throws the ball over their head, both team members jump up and compete for the ball. When competing for the ball, they can either catch it or hit the ball to their own team members.
American Rugby
Rules and regulations: Offensive and defensive: Each attack starts from the kickoff of the match, with 7 players from each team forming a formation for the kickoff of the match. The two teams are 1 yard apart, with the center area in the middle. At the kickoff of the match, the center forward returns the ball from below the crotch to the pivot forward. At the beginning of the game, after receiving the ball, the halfback can either run with the ball, kick or pass the ball to other players. Before the center forward kicks off, both team members are not allowed to enter the center area. Otherwise, it will be deemed offside and the team will be penalized with a 5-yard setback to restart the game. During the game, the ball holder can push the defender away with their hands or arms in order to get rid of it; Other attacking players can use shoulder bumps or body blocks to open the way for the ball bearer to run forward smoothly. Defensive players can hold the opponent's ball player by holding him or her waist or legs to prevent him or her from advancing. However, they must not hit, kick, trip, or attack from behind, otherwise it will be considered a foul. Defenders can only block opponents who do not hold the ball head-on. Any player who plays, kicks, trips, pushes, pulls, presses, etc. is considered a foul. Depending on the severity of the offense, players who violate the rules may be penalized for one to two of the following: ① loss of opportunity in attack once; ② Step back 5, 10, 15; ③ Disqualify from the competition. In a game, if the ball goes out of the sideline or runs out of the sideline with the ball, the attacking team will either face the ball again or start the match within the dashed line aligned with the ball's out of bounds location; If the attacking team passes the ball and kicks it out of the finish line, the defending team will kick off on their own 20 yard line. If the player holding the ball misses and loses the ball, both players have the right to receive the ball and move forward with the ball.
