A French team handball player being ejected from a match, signaled by the red card held aloft by the referee. In sports, an ejection (also known as dismissal, sending-off, disqualification, or early shower) is the removal of a participant from a contest due to a violation of the sport's rules.
Once the referee has given the signal for the kick-off, the ball is kicked in any direction. The ball is in play once it is kicked and clearly moves. The player taking the kick-off may not touch the ball again until it has been touched by another player. A goal may be scored directly from a kick-off against the opposing team. [2]
Dangerous play in rugby union is dealt with under the foul play law (Law 9) in the official International Rugby Board (IRB) rugby union law book. It defines foul play as "anything a player does within the playing enclosure that is against the letter and spirit of the Laws of the Game". [1]

Spray a shot: a poorly executed kick at goal that comes 'off the side of the boot' and produces a point. Stab pass: a short kick that travels very low to the ground to a teammate. Until the 1970s, this was usually a stab kick (a type of abbreviated drop kick) or a stab punt; both now largely replaced by a short drop punt.
Similarly to association football, the game begins with a coin toss to determine which team will kick off to begin the game and which goal each team will defend. [2] The options are presented again to start the second half; the choices for the first half do not automatically determine the start of the second half (i.e. it is possible for the same team to kick off both halves).
