Therefor the player coming on must make sure the player they are substituting (for) has left the field. /Therefor the player coming on must make sure that the player they are being substituted for has left the field
I am having trouble understanding. Is Sam coming on to play or leaving the field?
What is the difference between the 2?
1 The player Sam is being substituted for has left the field.
2 The player Sam is substituting for has left the field.
Who is leaving the game?
Dayton was substituted for Williams in the second half of the game.
Are both “form” optional? Is the paragraph correct?
When a sub enters the field can he do so (from) anywhere on the pitch or does it necessarily have to be at the halfway line? Can a player exit the field (from) anywhere or does he have to exit at/from the halfway line?
Thank you
