Two upright goalposts, one at the centre of each goal line, height 3.05 m to the top of the ring; Each post supports a horizontal metal ring of 380 mm internal diameter, with a net attached; The ring projects 150 mm horizontally from the post
Why people argue about this
People often assume that the rings are just decorative hoops instead of functional goal posts, leading to misunderstandings about their role in scoring. The confusion arises because they're positioned right at the center of each goal line, which can be easily overlooked or misinterpreted as a design choice rather than a critical part of gameplay.
