What is the "try line"?
The try line in rugby is the line located at each end of the field, just before the goalposts. To score a try, a player must carry or ground the ball over this line in the opponent’s area. The try line marks the boundary that a team must cross to score points in a match. If the ball is touched down behind the try line, the team earns a try, which is worth five points in most forms of rugby. The line is crucial as it indicates the scoring zone for both teams.
