specification
In ball sports, the specification or the surcharge is the right to be the first to play the game device. The opponent's play on the ball specification is the acceptance of the specification .
The information gives the player who gave up the opportunity to take the initiative. It is a greater or lesser advantage depending on the sport, so that the specification or the service game in return games changes in the course of the game. There are game systems in which the information changes every time (halftimes in football), or after a certain fixed series (twice in table tennis), until a certain game goal is reached (game in tennis), or has to be fought for by the opponent ( Volleyball) or the loser of the previous game (after a goal in football).
In most sports, the specification differs significantly from the rest of the play process, and also has a special set of rules . Carried the right to specify by Los , the player / team with worse or better is ranking for, or the like. In most games, a successful order of play is a prerequisite for the regular course of the game.
The indication is the "bring into play" of the ball. It is therefore closely related to the problem inherent in almost all ball games of how to regulate when the ball leaves the field of play . In most ball games - especially if it is rated as a point success by one of the opponents - a new entry is required. In some ball games, however, there are completely different rules (such as the throw- in in football).
Examples:
- Kick-off , indication (football)
- Surcharge, serve (tennis)
- Surcharge (table tennis)
- Surcharge, service (volleyball)
- Surcharge (badminton)
- Indication, serve (fistball)
