Referees have the power to issue penalties for intentional violations of rules. Penalties are the primary sanction in rugby union. For many offenses, such as offside, dumped tackle and kick to touch, a penalty can be issued. We will be discussing the various types of penalties in rugby.
Offside penalty in rugby
An offside penalty is given in rugby if a player is caught on the wrong end of the line. This means that he must move back onside, and rejoin play behind the teammate he was offside from. The offside line is an imaginary line that runs parallel to the goal-line and passes through the hindmost foot of the player in front of the ball.
Both referees as well players have the ability to abuse the penalty. Its usage is often questioned which has led to an increase on retribution. Although most rugby players know the offside rule well, officials might apply it inconsistency. Visual aids are a great way to explain the rule to players.
Rugby scrum penalty
In rugby, a scrum penalty is when the ball is kicked forwards rather than being kicked backwards. A scrum offense is committed when a player kicks the ball backwards towards the opposing try line. This is a rugby common law violation.
A knock-on penalty, line-out penalty or penalty goal can all be offset by the penalties. In the latter scenario, the kicker might take a corner kick or go for a try. A scrum penalty, in rugby, can result in a maul leading to a goal.
Dump tackle penalties in rugby
In recent years, rugby referees place more emphasis upon illegal tackles. This type of tackle can cause neck and head contact, which is dangerous. Referees will also be looking for any mitigating factors in determining whether a player has been caught with their head down. These may include a player's head coming down before the tackle is made or a player sliding up to the opponent's head.
Dump tackle is an illegal tackle in which the tackler lifts a player with the ball and then drives him to the ground using his arm. It is also illegal if the tackler brings the victim to the ground with their necks or heads below their legs. Rugby Union states that this type of tackle is illegal and referees should give it a yellow or red warning card.
Kick to touch penalty in rugby
Kick to touch penalties are penalties that stop play from being re-started after a player kicks the ball into touch. The ball must be at least two feet higher than the penalty-kicking player. A red card may be issued for foul language or high tackles. Red cards may be issued to players who commit the same offenses again and again. To avoid receiving a second red card, the team must refrain from repeating the same infraction.
In rugby, a kick to touch penalty is a penalty that occurs when the ball crosses one of the touchlines in the field. Different rules apply if the ball crosses the dead-ball or sideline. Kicking to touch is an unintentional, not deliberate act. It always results in a negative score for the team that has kicked the ball. A kick to touch cannot be done from the hand, unlike a punt. However, it is possible to execute a kick to touch penalty by passing backward.
