Number of Players There must be no more that 11 players on the field of play for either team. A minimum number of players is usually 7. Some youth leagues encourage games with less than 11 players to help in the development of young players. One player from each team must be designated as a goalkeeper. The goalkeeper must wear a different color shirt from his teammates so that everyone can easily distinguish the goalie. The goalie can only use his hands inside the penalty area. There are nine penal or major fouls. These fouls must be committed intentionally and may result in a Red Card”. The fouls are as follows: • Kicking a player. • Jumping up at a player. • Charging a player in a rough way. • Charging a player from behind. • Tripping a player. • Hitting or spitting at a player. • Pushing a player. • Holding a player. • Handling the ball. (Except by a goalkeeper). This foul is called if the player is trying to control the ball with his hands or arms. If one of these nine penalty fouls is committed and the referee blows his whistle and calls a foul, the opposing team gets a direct free kick. A “direct” kick means the opponent can try to score a goal directly from the kick. If the player committing the major foul receives a “red card” from the referee, he must leave the game, and is not allowed to return. A penalty kick is awarded when a defender commits a penal or major foul with the penalty area. The team that was fouled is given a penalty kick from the penalty mark (12 yards from the goal). All players except the goalkeeper must remain outside the penalty area and penalty arc until the kick is taken. The defending goalkeeper must stand on the goal line, between the goalposts and is not allowed to move until the ball is kicked. If the goalkeeper moves and the penalty shot does not score, then the penalty kick is retaken. Encroachment is when a player enters the penalty area or penalty arc before the ball is kicked. If a defender encroaches, then a scoring shot counts, a non-scoring shot is retaken. If an attacker encroaches, a scoring shot is disallowed and the kick is retaken. If the shot was non-scoring then the defending team gets an indirect free kick or a goal kick depending on where the ball is when the referee blows his whistle. If both teams encroach, the penalty kick is retaken whether it was a scoring shot or not. The penalty kick must go forward and cannot be played again by the kicker until another player has touched the ball. Throw-in A throw-in is taken to pause then continue a game after the ball goes out of play over the touchline. The player throwing the ball in must have both feet on the ground and both hands on the ball over his head. Both feet must remain on or behind the touchline. The thrower must throw the ball with both hands from the back of the head and over the top of the head.
