Below is an example of the visual ground rules that I want to include for each stadium.
Clicking on any of the four examples below will trigger a pop-up window with the text of the ground rule accompanied by a GIF that shows the application of that ground rule. Some of the GIFs are slow to load, so please be patient.
I will be asking each club to create similar GIFs for each of their ground rules.
