What is forfeited game?

A forfeited game occurs when one team or player fails to show up or to comply with the rules and regulations of the game. In such a situation, their opponents are declared the winners by default. A forfeited game can occur due to various reasons such as not having enough players, breaking the rules, or engaging in unsportsmanlike conduct. In some cases, a team may forfeit a game due to external factors such as weather conditions or transportation issues. In organized sports, teams or players may face disciplinary action or penalties for forfeiting games.
