listen to your coach.
Rule
#1: Footballs Must Be Made of Leather
Footballs must be made of leather.
They may not be made of any other materials, such as synthetic leather or
composite materials.
The reason for this rule is that
leather is a natural material that is both durable and flexible. It is also
able to absorb moisture, which helps to keep the ball from becoming slippery
when it is wet.
Synthetic materials, on the other
hand, are not as durable or flexible as leather. They also tend to be slippery
when wet, which can make it difficult for players to grip the ball.
Composite materials, such as those
made of plastic and rubber, are also not allowed. These materials are not as
durable as leather and can break easily.
Rule
#2: You Can Only Score Points in Soccer by Kicking the Ball Into the Net
In order to score points in soccer,
the ball must be kicked into the net. The ball cannot be touched with any part
of the body other than the foot. If the ball goes into the net off of any other
part of the body, it does not count as a goal.
If the ball goes into the net, but
does not stay in, it is still a goal. However, if the ball hits the net and
then bounces out, it is not a goal.
The goalie is the only player on the
field who can touch the ball with their hands. They can use their hands to
block shots or save goals. However, if they touch the ball outside of the
goalie box, they will give away a penalty kick.
Rule
#3: The Puck Must be Played with a Stick in Hockey
In hockey, the puck must be played
with a stick. The player cannot kick the puck or hit it with any other part of
their body. If they do, they will be penalized.
This rule is in place to keep the
game fair and to prevent players from injuring each other. It also helps to
keep the puck from going out of play too often.
If a player does use their body to
stop the puck, they will be given a minor penalty. If they use their stick to
stop the puck, they will not be penalized.
There are some exceptions to this
rule. For example, if a player is trying to protect themselves from an incoming
shot, they can use their body to block the puck. However, they must be careful
not to touch the puck with their body or they will be penalized.
Rule
#4: You Must Run Around the Bases to Score in Baseball
In baseball, the player must touch
all four bases in order to score a run. This may seem like an easy task, but it
can be quite difficult if the other team is playing defense.
If the player hits the ball and then
runs to first base, they must then touch second base, third base, and finally
home plate. If they are touched by the ball at any point during their run, they
are out and cannot score.
The player must also touch first
base before touching second base. If they touch second base before first base,
they are out.
There are also times when a player
can hit the ball and not have to run around all of the bases. This is called a
home run. If the player hits the ball over the fence that surrounds the field,
they automatically score a run without having to touch all four bases.
Rule
#5: The Ball Must Go Over the Net to Score in
In order to score in volleyball, the
ball must go over the net and land within the boundaries of the court. It
doesn't matter how high or low the ball goes over the net, as long as it goes
over.
If the ball hits the net and then
goes out of bounds, it is considered a "net serve" and the point will
be awarded to the other team.
If the ball hits the net and then
lands on your side of the court, it is considered a "let" and play
will continue.
