Pitch & Position
Ways to score Points
There are certain ways to score points which are:
A Try:
When an attacking player is first to ground the ball in the opponents In-goal
area.
Penalty Try:
If a player would have scored a try but fouled by an opponent
player near the In-goal area then a penalty try is awarded, followed by a
conversion kick.
Ways to score Points
A Conversion Goal:
When a player scores a try, its gives the scoring team the right to attempt to
score a goal by taking a kick at the goal. A Conversion is attempted from any
point of an imaginary line that runs parallel to the touch line from the point
where the ball was grounded to score a try.
Penalty Goal:
During an open play if a player is fouled by breaking a law then a penalty is
awarded, where a player scores by kicking at opponents goal over
the crossbar.
Dropped Goal:
In an open play a player scores a dropped goal by kicking a goal from a drop
kick.
5 Tight Forwards (Hooker, Props, & Locks)
The hooker is positioned between the two
props in the scrum and generally throws
the ball into the line-out
The props "prop up" the hooker in the
scrum.
Locks are generally tall and are often
primary targets when the ball is thrown in
at line-outs.
3 Loose Forwards (Flankers & No. 8)
Number eights interact with the
scrum-half at the back of the scrum
to control and provide clean ball for
the backs.
The flanker's role is often to tackle
the opposition and try to steal the
ball.
