Know about Rugby Score System

Try-5 Points

When the ball is grounded over the goal line of the opponent in the goal area, a try is scored. A try is the highest number of points that can be scored by a rugby team at one time. In case a player scores a try but for foul play by the opposition, a penalty can be awarded to him.

Converting a Try – 2 Points

After a penalty is awarded, the attacking team is given a chance to add two more points to their scoreboard by kicking a conversion between the posts from any place in line where the try was scored.

Penalty Goals – 3 Points

A penalty can be awarded to the other side if the referee determines that a team has broken any of the laws of the game. Out of the several options of how to best utilise the resulting possession, the team can opt for the choice to kick a penalty goal.

Drop Goal – 3 Points

The dropped goal is different from conversion or penalty kick as it takes place when the ball is in play. A drop goal can be scored when a player kicks for goal during an open play by dropping the ball trying to kick for the poles just after the balls hits the ground.
