INDOOR SOCCER:

RULES FOR ST ANDREWS

  • When the ball goes out on the sideline, a kick-in is taken by the non-offending team. The defending team must be back at least 2 metres. A goal cannot be scored directly off a kick-in.
  • When the ball goes out over the goal line, if kicked by the attacking team a goal kick is awarded. If kicked by the defending team, a corner is taken. A goal can be scored directly from a corner.
  • If the ball should for any reason come into contact with the basketball rings above the goals, a goal kick is awarded no matter what team kicked the ball.

If the keeper deflects it up onto the rim or backboard, the other team gets a sideline kick around that area. At all other times the ball remains in play unless the referee indicates otherwise by blowing his whistle.
  • DISTANCES: When a player is taking a direct free kick or indirect free kick, defending players must be at least 5 metres awary from where the kick is to be taken. If these distances are infringed the referee can rule a kick to be taken again.

  • A goal kick may be taken from anywhere in the penalty box, and the goal keeper may throw the ball out rather than kicking it if desired.
  • When throwing the ball, the ball must bounce once or touch another player before crossing the half way line otherwise an indirect free kick will be awarded where the ball bounced.
