howeverの使い方
kabaddiというスポーツの説明が書かれた文です。 Two teams are facing each other on the field. One team sends out a player,"a raider,"to the opposing side. The raider runs after the opposing players. His aim is to touch as many opposing players as he can and return to his side in one breath. He keeps shouting"Kabaddi,Kabaddi"to show that he has not taken a breath yet. After the raider returns,the touched players are"dead." Among the opposing players,however,（←これ）are"stoppers." They try to catch the raider. If they do so,the raider is dead. 文全体の言いたいことは分かるのですが このhoweverがどういう働きをしているのかかがよくわかりません。

#1 です。 ＞一息でタッチすれば 一息で自陣に帰ってくれば の誤りでした。 ついでに， A, but B. のようにつなげる but に対して （A. But B. はあまりよくない） A. However, B. とするのが however です。 A でいったんピリオドとする。 ただ，B の部分は ～, however, ～. のように途中に however を入れたり， ～, however. と文末にもってくることもあります。 特に挿入が一番きれいな形。 でも，日本語では「しかし，」と最初にもってこないと日本語としてはすなおな訳ではなくなります。 英語の翻訳で，「私はしかしながら，～」なんていうのが時々出てきますが， これは英語的には普通でも，日本語では普通じゃないです。 今回の however も文の途中で出てきますが，日本語的には HOWEVER しかし，among ～ と先頭にあるつもりで訳さないと，正しく意味が感じられません。 もしかして，Among ～を訳して，「しかし」とやろうとして， 意味が感じられず，この however は「しかし」じゃない， とお考えではないですか。

raider が相手選手にタッチして， 一息で（Kabaddi と言い続けて）自陣に帰ってきたら， タッチされた選手は dead となる。 （そういうルールではあるが） 「しかし」そんな単純なものじゃない，ただタッチして 一息でタッチすれば相手選手を殺せる，一方的なものではなく， 相手選手の中に stopper と呼ばれる選手がいて， raider を捕まえようとする。 捕まったら，raider の方が dead raider は相手選手を dead するか，stopper に dead とされるか。 こういう「しかし」とつなげるための however です。
補足
わかりやすい説明ありがとうございます。 このhoweverが文の中間に入っているのは何か意味があるのですか？ この部分はなんとなく日本語にはない順番で なんだかややこしく感じてしまいます。 それからhoweverの後ろにあるare stoppersの[are]は、 opposing playerの中に「いる」という意味で使われているのでしょうか。

The phenomenon of intetest is in itself a most interesting subject . It is not too much to say that a man's interests are a sure guide to the real man. We certainly act on that assumption when we choose our friends. It is just as reasonable to suppose that what a culture defines as interesting is no less a guide to its own values, goals and self consciousness. という英文で、it is just as reasonable to suppose that …のところのasが前文の内容が比較対照が明らかなので、省略されているらしのですが、これは it is just as reasonable to suppose that what a culture defines as interesting is no less a guide to its own values, goals and self consciousness as it is just as reasonable to say that a man ' s intetests are a sure guide to the real man ということでいいのでしょうか？あとhe is rich and you are just as rich[as he is]のようにto say that a man ' s intetests are a sure guide to the real man をthatとし、it is just as reasonable to suppose that …as that isのように書き換えられるのでしょうか？

The principal reason why he was always being asked to umpire a game―aside from the fact that he never expected to be paid for his services, saying that he liked to umpire for the good of the game―was that he never failed to try to please both teams. If one side did not like one of his decisions, he would stop the game then and there and let the players on both sides swear at him as much as they pleased and call him the worst names they would think of until they were tired of arguing aand wanted to get back to playing ball. 構文分析よろしくお願い致します できるだけ丁寧に解説してくださると嬉しいです。
