Gaelic football is the most popular sport in Ireland. Each team has 15 players comprised of 1 goalkeeper, 6 backs, 2 midfielders and 6 forwards. Players advance the football up the field with a combination of carrying, bouncing, kicking, hand-passing and soloing (dropping the ball and then toe-kicking the ball upward into the hands). Two types of scores are possible: points and goals. A point is awarded for kicking or hand-passing the ball over the crossbar. A goal is awarded for kicking the ball under the crossbar into the net.
