In rugby union, what is the playing area behind a team’s goal line called?

In rugby union, the playing area behind a team’s goal line is called the in-goal area.

A try is scored when an attacking player grounds the ball in the opposition’s in-goal area. The goal line forms the boundary between the field of play and the in-goal area, while the dead-ball line marks its far edge. The two touch-in-goal lines run along the sides.

The term can be confused with “end zone,” which is standard terminology in American football and Canadian football. Rugby union uses “in-goal” in its laws and match descriptions. A try is worth five points, and the conversion attempt is taken on a line through the spot where the try was grounded.
