Soccer
Soccer is a team sport involving 2 teams of eleven players on a field, designed for that sport. The objective of each team is to shoot a ball into the opponent’s goal without using the hands. The only player allowed to use his hands is the goalkeeper in his penalty area. In this same area, a fault committed by a player of the defensive team forces a direct free kick at 11 meters from the goal line. Other faults are mainly unsportsmanlike behavior and contacts between the players.The referee can punish by giving yellow card or a warning, or, he can give the red card which expulses a player of the match.
Basket
Basketball is a team sport in which 2 teams of 5 players try to score points. A match is divided into four periods of 20 minutes. When a shot misses the basket, players of both teams may try to recover possession of the ball before or after it touches the ground. The five players from each team that start a game are part of the five major.When a player has committed five personal fouls during the game, he has no right to play again until the end of the match.
Ice hockey
Ice hockey is played on a hockey rink. Each team has 6 players on the ice including the goaltender. The five players with out the goaltender are divided into 3 forwards and 2 defencemen. The objective is to shoot the puck in the net behind the goaltender. The line changes can occur during injury time, but also during the game. For most of the penalties, the player is sent to the penalty bench and his team has to play with one player less. Most minor penalties last for 2 minutes, unless a major penalty of five minutes duration, or a double minor penalty of 2 consecutive penalties of 2 minutes duration each. The team that has taken the penalty myst play shorthanded while the other team is on the power play.
