GOALKEEPER RESTRICTIONS

The goalkeeper may not handle a ball that was intentionally passed back from a teammate. The restart penalty must be taken from the top of the arc. This is not a penalty kick.

Five Second Distribution: A goalkeeper in possession of the ball within the penalty area must put ball on floor within five seconds of having received the ball.

A three line violation will be declared when any player causes the ball to be kicked or thrown from the white line dividing the kicking team's defensive zone from the middle third of the field, and the ball crosses the second white line without touching a wall, referee or a player. The ball will be placed at the restart line located in the team's half that committed the foul.

A goalkeeper who receives or carries the ball with his feet outside the penalty area can not bring the ball back into his penalty area and handle it unless it has been touched by another player.

Goalkeeper may not handle the ball outside of penalty area. If the ball is completely out of the penalty area, a free kick will be given.

The goalkeeper shall have clear possession of the ball when it is held in both hands or pinned against the floor with both hands.
