centre circle
Pitch's middle ring
The centre circle is the circular marking at the midfield of a football pitch or similar sports field, with the centre spot at its middle.
At kickoff, opposing players must stay outside the centre circle until the ball is played.
The spelling reflects British English; Americans write center circle.
