The intention is to keep you abreast of new graphics as they become available and to show how an operator can use tOG Sports to create compelling analysis graphics – often with just a few mouse clicks.

These are not intended as training videos, these are available on our Partner Pages.

The Gain Line is an imaginary line (parallel to the halfway line) drawn across the pitch at the point where there is a breakdown in open play, such as a ruck, maul or scrum. Advancing across the gain line represents a gain in territory. Playing “beyond the gain line” is a common phrase coaches use to teach their players the fundamental goal of rugby (gaining space while maintaining possession of the ball). A great way to show how much territory a team gains during play.
