The bowler, or 'feeder', bowls the ball with an underarm pendulum action to the batter. According to Rounders England rules, the ball is deemed a 'good' ball if it passes within reach on the striking side between the batter's knees and the top of the head. Otherwise, it is called a 'no-ball' or 'bad' ball. The ball is also regarded as bad if it is thrown into the batter's body or wide of the batting box. A batter may try to hit a bad ball but is not required to do so. A player is not out if a no-ball is caught and cannot be called out on first base. </p><p>When a batter leaves the post, each runner on a base may run to the next and succeeding base. A post runner cannot be declared out when standing at a base. The batter must keep in contact with the base to avoid being declared out. A rounder is scored if one of the batting team completes a circuit without being out. The Rounders England rules state that a half rounder is scored if half a circuit is completed by a player without being put out, or if the batter has not hit the ball but makes it all the way to the fourth base. A batter is out if a fielder catches the ball cleanly; the batter reaches a base that had been 'stumped' (touched while holding the ball) by a fielder; the bat is dropped whilst the batter is running; the batter leaves the base before the bowler has bowled the ball; or the batter is 'run out' (overtaken) by the next batter. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rounders_England-specific_rules">Rounders England-specific rules</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rounders&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Rounders England-specific rules"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Rounders_at_the_cricket_club,_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/46/Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg/220px-Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="117" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/46/Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg/330px-Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/46/Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg/440px-Rounders_at_the_cricket_club%2C_Nowton_-_geograph.org.uk_-_990727.jpg 2x" data-file-width="640" data-file-height="341" /></a><figcaption>A game of rounders being played in <a href="/wiki/Nowton" title="Nowton">Nowton</a>, England</figcaption></figure> <p>In the UK, the rules of rounders are regulated by Rounders England.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Games played under these rules use smaller bats and balls and are played on a smaller pitch compared to GAA games.

A batter that hits a no-ball may not be caught out or stumped at the first post. Batters may run on 'no-balls' but do not have to. Each batter, except the last in each inning, is entitled to receive one good ball: the last batter is entitled to receive three good balls unless he or she is caught out. </p><p>One rounder is gained if the player hits the ball, then reaches the fourth post and touches it before the next ball is bowled and is not caught out and hit by the ball.

Foul ground runs along two adjacent sides of the pitch with a home base at the intersection of these sides. </p><p>Five substitutes may be made to the list of nine players at any time during play.

Once one team has fielded, then they take their turn at batting following a pre given batting order. </p><p>The ball (or <span title="Irish-language text"><i lang="ga"><a href="/wiki/Sliotar" title="Sliotar">sliotar</a></i></span>) circumference is 22.7–25.5 centimetres (8.9–10.0 in) and bats may be 70–110 centimetres (28–43 in) long and up to 7 centimetres (2.8 in) in diameter. There is no limit on bat weight. Bases and pitchers stand are normally marked with temporary square mats 64 cm (28") square. </p><p>Each batter is entitled to three good balls. A good ball is one that travels the whole way across home base and between the batters knee and shoulder. A batter can try to hit any good balls that are pitched but need not run once hitting the ball or the first two good balls. </p><p>A batter can run on any hit ball that lands in good ground or which is made good by touching a fielder then landing in foul ground. On a third good ball a batter has to run (move from batters box) whether they hit it or not. </p><p>Batters may run, but if the sliotar lands in foul ground then the referee calls them back as no play can happen on a foul ball. </p><p>A batter is out if: </p> <ul><li>on a third good ball, the batter fails to strike the ball and the catcher holds the ball before it touches the ground;</li> <li>the bat is thrown or tossed in a dangerous way;</li> <li>on a third good ball, the batter strikes the ball into the foul area;</li> <li>the bowler or catcher's view is obstructed for a second time, after a warning given on the first instance;</li> <li>Tagging a runner – i.e. deliberate contact is made with a fielder carrying the ball;</li> <li>the batter touches a base that has been 'tagged' by another fielder carrying the ball, in which case the batter must return to the previous base if it is still unoccupied;</li> <li>the batter attempts to occupy a base occupied by someone else.</li></ul> <p>Batters must run in straight lines between bases and fielders must not obstruct their way or stand on bases. Disobeying this rule is considered unsporting behaviour and may result in up to two bases being awarded to the batting team or a batter being sent out. Normally, one batter may not overtake another while running between bases, although there are exceptions to this rule. </p><p>Five innings constitute a game, depending on the level of the match. Each batting team's inning continues until three outs are made. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Comparison_with_softball_and_baseball">Comparison with softball and baseball</h2><span

title="Softball">softball</a>, the main difference being that the game is played with baseball-sized bats, balls and field.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="margin-left:0.1em; white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_clarify" title="Wikipedia:Please clarify"><span title="The text near this tag may need clarification or removal of jargon. (May 2020)">clarification needed</span></a></i>]</sup> However, baseball-style gloves are not allowed. The main differences between <a href="/wiki/Baseball" title="Baseball">baseball</a> and the English version of the game are that the rounders bat is much shorter and is usually swung one-handed; misses or strikes are not called, so there are no walks or strike-outs; each batter receives only one good ball and must run whether they hit it or not. Other differences include the posts for marking the bases, which should be wooden, and are preferably encased in plastic sheaths, the layout of the pitch, especially the location of the last base; and the bowler's arm motion, which is an underarm pendulum action, as in softball. It is similar to cricket. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a
