Basic rules for rugby league

Answer 1

The basic rules for Rugby league is to ground the ball in the oppositions in goal area and at the end of the game, which ever team has the most points, wins. A try is worth 4 points, a conversion is a kick through the posts after a try and is worth 2 points, a drop goal is worth 1 point and a penalty goal is also 2 points. To prevent the team from grounding the ball in your in goal area, you can tackle the player until the referee calls 'held!' When the tackle is over the tackler must get up and wait for the tackled player to roll the ball to dummy half which is the player receiving the ball being rolled from the tackled player. A scrum is a group of players binding onto each other contesting through physical contact for the ball. A scrum is awarded to the non offending team. A scrum can be called for when someone has forward passed, knocked on or is accidentally offside. A knock on is when a player has had the ball rebounded of their arms, or hands. A penalty is awarded for many reasons if the player fails to follow the rules of rugby league. There is a big difference between league and union.
