Two points A try (5 points) is scored when the ball is touched to the ground in the opponent's try zone. The conversion kick (2 points): Following a successful try, a team can add two more points by kicking the ball through the goal posts. Invalid shots at goal (0 points) There is no limit on how many times a player can score a try, provided that he has not kicked the ball out of play. If a player scores a try and then kicks the ball out of play, he cannot further score points with this try. In rugby sevens, a penalty try can be awarded for an infringement that would not result in a penalty under regular rugby rules. For example, if a player is pulled down in his own in-goal area, this would normally be penalized at least 10 meters from the try line. However, if this player gets up again before being tackled or passes the ball, the referee may award a penalty try. This means that the player who was pulled down will get another chance to score a try without any time penalties applied. A drop-out occurs when a player is removed from play due to injury or expulsion. Unless the player leaves the field injured, he must either return to play or be replaced. If a replacement player comes onto the field before a drop-out has been removed, he too becomes ineligible until the end of the match.
