hockey_nodzone_faceoff_spot_ring: Hockey Non-Center Faceoff Spot (Ring)

In sportyR: Plot Scaled 'ggplot' Representations of Sports Playing Surfaces

Hockey Non-Center Faceoff Spot (Ring)

Description

The non-centered faceoff spots are located in the neutral, offensive and defensive zones of the ice, with one on each side of the x-axis when viewing the rink in TV view. These spots differ from the center faceoff spot because they have a larger diameter, differ in color, and have a colored stripe that runs through its center.

Usage

hockey_nodzone_faceoff_spot_ring(feature_radius = 0, feature_thickness = 0)

Arguments

feature_radius	The outer radius of the non-centered faceoff spot ring
feature_thickness	The thickness of the non-centered faceoff spot ring

Details

This function is responsible for creating the outer ring, not the colored stripe running through it. Please see hockey_nodzone_faceoff_spot_stripe() for more information on it

The non-centered faceoff spots are where faceoffs are taken after an icing call or to start a powerplay. They differ from the center ice faceoff spot in size, color, and form. The thickness should be given by 'minor_line_thickness' as these are minor lines on the ice surface

Value

A data frame containing the bounding coordinates of a non-centered faceoff spot ring
