A throw forward in rugby is an illegal action where a player throws the ball in the direction of their team's goal line. The ball must be passed sideways or backward to a teammate, but a forward throw, or "forward pass," results in a free kick or scrum awarded to the opposing team. This rule ensures that the game remains fair and that teams do not gain an unfair advantage by advancing the ball illegally. A forward throw is one of the basic mistakes that can stop the flow of the game.
