Every dead ball is an indirect kick (Exception: Penalty Kicks).
Kick off's to start the game, and after a goal, can be passed backward. Kick-Offs must wait for the Ref's whistle to be blown.
Penalty kicks are from the marker or 3 yards from the top of the goalie box.
Kicking team has 4 seconds to make a dead ball live.
Opponents must give 4 yards from a dead ball.
If the ball touches the roof netting, it is an indirect kick on the closest sideline.
If the ball goes out on the sideline, it is a indirect kick from the spot it went out on the sideline.
If the ball goes out on the endline, it is either a corner or a throw from the goalie.
The goalie can bring the ball into his/her box and pick it up.
The goalie cannot throw the ball over the half way line. If ball is thrown across the halfway line, it is an indirect kick on the half way line where the ball crossed.
Goalie must be across the half line to score. Otherwise, any kick from the goalie behind the line is indirect.
If the goalie picks up a pass back from their own team it is an indirect kick from where the pass occurred.
No sliding or slide tackling.
No shoulder checking: all players must make contact with the ball first before any body contact is made.
If it is a goal scoring opportunity and you get fouled in the box, it is a PK on the small marker (Direct Kick).
If you receive a yellow, you must sit out and your team must play down for (2) minutes. If the opposing team scores before the 2 minutes is up your teammate can come back in to play.
If a player receives two yellow cards within a game, it is the equivalent of a red card and that player must sit out the remainder of the game
If you receive a red, you must sit out the entire game and may miss the next game or season (violent red) upon review.
Unsportsmanlike behavior is considered a yellow card: yelling at opponents before shots/tackles, disrespectful to the ref and opponents, kicking the ball away on fouls, etc.
Free subbing. Play does not stop for subs. Players must come off the field before the new player steps onto the field.
If you have too many players on the field, it is an indirect free kick where the player stepped onto the field.
Forfeit is a 3-0 win.
You must forfeit if you have 3 or less players for the game.
The Ref can wait up to 5 minutes before starting the game to wait for all teammates to arrive. After the 5 minutes, the Ref will start the clock and if players do not arrive within 2 minutes (7 minutes total) it is considered a forfeit.
You may have up to 3 guest players per game, but they must check in at the Front Desk and have an account with Outbreak Soccer Centers. Guest players cannot play in Play-offs.
