Scoring

Basket ball Scoring
Scoring in a handball Game

A goal is scored, when the whole of the ball has passed over the opponents goal line between the goal posts and under the cross bar. If a referee or the time keeper has blown his whistle before the whole of the ball has crossed the goal line, the goal cannot be counted. A goal made by a team in its own goal is awarded to the opposing team. A goal may be scored direct from any throw except goal throw. If a goal has been scored, the play has been restarted by a throw on from the center of the court. The team having scored the greater number of goals will be the winner. If both teams have scored the same number of goals or if no goal has been scored at all, the game is a draw.


If previously decided that a match will end in a decision and at the end of the second half if it is a draw, two extra halves will be played, after an interval of 5 minutes. The referee will again toss a coin and the team winning the toss will have the option of sides or the throw on. The 2 halves will be of 5 minutes each. Even after these 2 halves, if the game remains indecisive, another 2 halves of 5 minutes each must be played after an interval of 5 minutes and after a new toss of coin.
