What is a "Line Out" in Rugby?



soccer and rugby

The modern game of rugby union is based on line outs. Line outs are awarded to the team that holds the ball until it hits the ground. This is the start of play again. The advances in technical and tactical understanding of the lineout have reduced the advantage enjoyed by the throwing team for most of the last four years.

To form a line out, the players forming the line must stand on either the five-metre or the fifteen-metre line. Lineout participants must not move further than ten meters from the touch-line. The line-out is over if the ball reaches the opposite side of the line. After the ball leaves the line-out, all the players involved in the ruck must move backwards beyond the line of touch. When this occurs, the player carrying the ball may pass the ball to another player.

The team that is throwing the ball must be accurate with its delivery. The ball must also always be directed in the right direction. In some games the receiver may be a forward. However the scrum-half will catch it.

There are many rules for the throwing team. The player who throws the ball must be at least 5 metres away from the touch-line, and the kicker must stand at least 10 metres away from the tackle site. The line-out does not include a kicker whose foot is on the 22-metre line. However, he can participate in the scrum.


The receiving team has the option of kicking the ball to the side or putting the ball in for a scrum. Depending on the type of play into which the ball is kicked, the location of the line-out will differ.

There are many reasons that line outs in rugby union can be awarded. If the ball crosses a sideline and the person carrying it passes the ball to another player, the receiving party is awarded the line out. Similar to the penalty kick, if a ball hits the goal line or the sideline, the receiving team receives a penalty kick.

Another advantage of the throwing team is its ability to put the ball into a scrum. As with other sports, the putin is won by the player whose ability to kick the ball in the scrum. However, the throwing side can also kick the ball to the scrum. The thrower then has to leave the 20-metre area.

The throwing team has an advantage in that it can take a kick for a foul, but the other team could lose the ball because of its mistakes. A player used to be able to run forward to get the ball. These rules have been changed. These rules have been updated.

These changes have been made so that the throwing team doesn't determine the number of players in the line out. One player usually shouts the code. It is the role of the player, to make sure that everyone understands what is going on.

How To

What is the best way to start base jumping?

Base jumping is also known as parachuting or free-fall. It involves jumping from fixed objects such as buildings, bridges and towers without any equipment. The participant uses their parachute safely to land from the object. It is similar in nature to skydiving. You don't need a parachute and you don’t need to hold your breath until it opens.

A wingsuit is the most common type base jumper. A wingsuit has two pieces of fabric, which are sewn together. One piece covers the chest and arms, and the second piece covers the legs. The jumper wears special boots that allow him/her to stand upright during flight. The jumper pulls the ankle straps tighter during descent. This causes the fabric covering his/her legs to bunch up under his/her body, creating an air pocket. When this air pocket becomes big enough, the jumper opens his/her parachute and lands safely.

Base jumpers can use powered suits in order to accelerate their speed through the air. Two main components of powered suits are a backpack with batteries and a pack that can be worn underneath the jumper's clothing. These packs have small rockets that can shoot hot gases at high speeds. This creates thrust which propels the jumper forward. These suits can be quite loud and heavy.

BASE jumping can be a dangerous sport. You need to be aware of the dangers involved in learning how to BASE jump. You could fall off a cliff or hit an obstacle upside-down or head-on. Or you could collide with another jumper. Although BASE jumping can be dangerous in some cases, it can also prove to be extremely dangerous if done wrong.
