Defenders may not cross the centre line (the lobby) of
the eld and the raider may not cross the boundary lines.
However, there is one bonus line which can grant extra
points for the raider if he manages to touch it and return
successfully. Players who are out are temporarily sent

Matches are categorised based on age and weight. Six
ocials supervise a match: one referee, two umpires, a
