Therefore, a ball thrown over a distance of at least ten yards could be <a href="/wiki/Mark_(Australian_rules_football)" title="Mark (Australian rules football)">marked</a> if caught on the full; and goals could be scored from throws, with the exception that a thrown goal must have been from a distance greater than twenty yards – an arc twenty yards from the goal line was painted on the field to enable this to be judged by umpires.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The game was played with an <a href="/wiki/American_football_(ball)" class="mw-redirect" title="American football (ball)">American football</a> rather than an <a href="/wiki/Sherrin" title="Sherrin">Australian football</a>, because the pointed design of the American ball meant that it could be both thrown and kicked.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These rules enabled Americans to participate against Australians at Australian rules football using the ball skills they already possessed from playing American football. </p><p>The first game of Austus was played on 18 July 1943 at <a href="/wiki/Punt_Road_Oval" title="Punt Road Oval">Punt Road Oval</a> between a team of US Servicemen and an Australian Explosives Factory team over two 25-minute halves.
