The line-out is one interesting aspect of rugby. Line-outs can be used to restart a game if one of the players is hurt or the ball is not in play. Typically, a player must enter the line-out from the back of the ruck, or 'hook.' They then have to wait for their kicker before moving.

The line out is a good example of how both passive and active players are affected by the offside rule. Active involvement involves anticipating a pass and crossing closer towards the opponents' goal line. Passive players do not fall under the offside rule.
