Indirect kick - Tuesday, August 29, 2006
A type of
"free kick" given after minor fouls such as obstruction. On an indirect
kick, another player (on either team) must touch the ball before a goal
can be scored.
Question: "How do you know if a free kick is indirect?"
Answer: "The referee will raise his arm above his head and leave it up
until the ball is kicked".
On an indirect kick you should have one
player gently tap the ball so another player standing behind the ball
can kick it; or pass it to someone who shoots it. If on an Indirect
Free Kick the ball is kicked into the goal without anyone else touching
it (other than the kicker) the goal does not count and the other team
is awarded a goal kick. However, if the ball is touched by a player on
either team, including the goalkeeper, before it goes into the goal,
the goal counts.

Advantage Clause - Tuesday, August 29, 2006
Ever wonder why sometimes an obvious foul is not called?
A clause in
the rules that gives the Referee the discretion to allow play to
continue even after a foul has been committed if stopping play would
unfairly punish the fouled team (e.g., if the fouled team had a
breakaway & might score even after having been fouled). The idea is
that the team which committed the foul should not gain an advantage as
a result of the foul.

Handball - Sunday, March 26, 2006
Most handball infractions are called
incorrectly. A handball infraction requires the player to
purposefully handle the ball with their hands to gain advantage. Just
because the ball hits the players hands does not necessarily mean it’s a
handball infraction. The "Hand" begins at the shoulder and ends at the hand.
