Message: [QUOTE="Chuck, post: 2906365, member: 1646"] A hate the rule that you retake a throw in if the ball never goes in. That should be deemed out of play or a foul throw. Here's a couple questions for our refs: A trick set-piece is going through our age group (which means it's already no longer effective). Two girls go out to the corner kick. The coach yells for one of the girls to take the kick. The other jogs away dragging a marking defender with her since. As she's doing that, she touches the ball with her foot. The remaining player then dribbles the ball in with the idea that the touch was the corner kick. A corner kick must be kicked. What is the current definition of "kick?" Is a touch enough, or does it have to be a rotation? Also, a coach told me they ran that play and a ref called it a rekick because you aren't allowed to trick the other team. That seemed odd. The coach was pretty sure the ref was tricked and blew the whistle think the corner kicker just dribbled the ball in. Must a player automatically give 10 yards on a restart, or does the kicking player have to ask for 10? We cheat a bit and give like 6 yards. We had a ref recently mark off 10 proactively. Our head coach was upset saying that the other team needs to ask for 10. I don't know which is right. When the goalie walks the ball up to the 18 to punt, when is it a hand ball? If the ball is still in their hand while the ball is over the line, I'd think that is a handball. But I had a ref tell me it's fine if the goal still had a foot in the box. [/QUOTE]
