Penalty 1: goal awarded

A foul to save a goal near the goal gives a goal; play restarts at half way with a free hit if the foul was dangerous or deliberate, otherwise with a throw-in.

  1. 39a

    If a player commits a dangerous or deliberate foul to save a goal, near the goal, the whistle shall be blown and a goal awarded to the side fouled. Once the goal has been awarded, play shall resume with a penalty from the middle of the field, with the due change of ends
