The Laws of the Game, Put to the Test
Football has only 17 Laws of the Game, set by IFAB (the body that governs the rulebook alongside FIFA), but they pack in dozens of exact measurements, timings and thresholds that most fans never memorize — from the pitch's exact dimensions to how far the defensive wall must stand at a free kick. This visual quiz shows you side-by-side diagrams so you can pick out the regulation option among a few plausible choices.
Questions span five categories: pitch and markings, goal and ball, match time, officiating (VAR and offside included), and players and kit — ranging from the basics (how long each half lasts) to the genuinely tricky (the corner arc's radius, barely visible on a real pitch).
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Rules Trivia quiz work?
Each game features 25 questions on the Laws of the Game — pitch dimensions, goal and ball sizes, match time, officiating, and player equipment. Many questions include a visual diagram so you can pick the correct option. You get 20 seconds per question.
Where do these facts come from?
Every answer is based on IFAB's official Laws of the Game — the same rulebook FIFA uses at the World Cup. A few specific rules (like VAR implementation or the minimum number of players) are left to each competition organizer's discretion.
Do I need to know the rulebook by heart to play?
No. The quiz mixes easy questions (like how long each half lasts) with much harder ones (like the exact radius of the corner arc), so there is a real challenge at every level.
Is Rules Trivia free to play?
Yes — completely free, with no account or registration required.
