Fall 2011


Scoring A goal is scored when the entire ball has passed over

the goal line (on the line is not the same as over the line)

It is the position of the ball that counts The entire ball must cross the goal line prior to the

expiration of time for the goal to count If the defenders deliberately stop or deflect the ball with

their hands or arms to prevent a goal, it will count if it goes in

A goal may be scored directly from a kickoff, goal kick, direct free kick, penalty kick and corner kick (and keeper’s throw)

Two yellows on the same person in the same game = an ejection

An ejected player may not be replaced Three yellows on the same team in the same game

Do not have to caution someone in order to give a red card

Red card = ejection Two ejected players in on the same team in one

game will forfeit the game

Slide Tackles – Not your H.S. slide tackle! Slide tackles are illegal in Intramural

Soccer Teams are told not to slide feet first in

an effort to make a play on the ball or someone in possession of the ball

Goalies must also not slide feet first towards a player

This results in a yellow card and a penalty kick

Second violation on the same player results in a red card

Lunges are not slide tackles

Fall 2011


Jumping, Kicking, Spitting, Striking, Tripping Engaging in the above or attempting to do the

same is dangerous and liable to cause injury In addition to penalizing with a direct kick, the

referee shall caution or eject the player depending on the severity of the act

Jumping at an opponent is different than jumping to play the ball

Fall 2011


Hand Balls A player shall be penalized if the player

deliberately handles the ball; that is, carries, strikes or propels it with his or her hands or arms

Result = Direct free kick Inadvertent touching (the ball touching

the hands or arms) shall not be penalized even though the player or the player’s team gains an advantage by such inadvertent touching

Fall 2011


Dangerous or Violent Charging A player shall be penalized for charging an opponent

in a violent or dangerous manner In addition to penalizing with a direct kick, the

referee shall either caution player if it is a misconduct or eject the player depending on the severity of the act

If not deemed violent or dangerous but still illegal, an indirect kick can be awarded

A fair charge consists of a nudge or contact with the near shoulder, when both players are in an upright position, within playing distance of the ball, and have at least one foot on the ground and their arms held close to the body

penalized if he or she deliberately strikes or attempts to strike another player, coach or bench personnel in a malicious manner or leaves the bench to participate in an altercation

The acts may include, kicking, head-butting, hair pulling or an open-handed strike if done deliberately and in a malicious manner

Two types of pushing infractions The kind where someone just wants the opposing player to

give him distance This could be deemed misconduct and a yellow card

could be issued The second is a shoving match that could lead to the

fighting mentioned above Red cards should be given for this type of offense so as

to prevent it becoming anything else

Fall 2011


Fouling the Goalkeeper The referee shall eject without previous

caution any player who, with obvious intent, violently fouls the goalkeeper who is in possession of the ball in the keeper’s penalty area

The awarded kick shall be a direct free kick

Fall 2011


Obstruction A player shall be penalized for obstructing an

opponent when not playing the ball; that is, running between an opponent and the ball or interposing his or her body as to form an obstacle to an opponent

Result = Indirect free kick Tactical or legal obstruction occurs when a player

places himself or herself between an opponent and the ball, keeping the ball within playing distance, and shields the ball in an attempt to not have it played by the opponent

Playing distance relative to judging obstruction is whether the player with the ball can play the ball at any given moment or if the player is preventing an opponent from playing it

is of dangerous nature or likely to cause injury to oneself or an opponent
