The Rules and Regulations of Soccer may be something you've seen before. If you have never coached a soccer game before, it is important to understand the Goal line width and offside area. Also, learn the rules regarding goalkeepers and penalty kicks. FIFA's Laws of the Game can be a great resource. They are updated annually and are an excellent tool for coaches, whether you're new to coaching or a seasoned veteran.
Width of the goal line
There are few dimensions to a soccer field, and the goal line is just one. The International Association of Football, FIFA, has established the "Laws of the Game" to determine the length and width of the soccer pitch. Goal posts must be at least 8 feet wide and no shorter than two meters high, and the playing field must be rectangular. These rules don't apply to youth leagues which use smaller balls.
Offside
The Offside area in soccer rules and regulations prevents a player from crossing the goal line when they are offside. Players near the goal line hope to receive a long ball and then get into an offside position. This isn't always the case but it can happen. In such a case, the attacking player must be at least two yards back from the goal line in order to be onside.
Goalkeepers
Goalkeepers enjoy certain privileges such as the ability throw the ball into the goal. This privilege is not unrestricted. There are many situations where goalies may not allow their teammate to play the ball. The direction of play will dictate the goalkeeper’s position in penalty area. Other times, a goalkeeper may reach out to touch or hold the ball. However, they are not allowed stand up while the ball remains in the goal.
Penalty Kicks
For serious or egregious infractions, penalty kicks in soccer can be awarded. A yellow card, red card or both may be issued to the player who committed the foul. A yellow card is given when a player commits an egregious offence, while a green card is issued for multiple offenses. If a player gets a yellow card, they must wait until it reaches the opposition's goal before they can kick a penalty.
Red card
A red card can be given to a player in soccer for many reasons. Some offenses are obvious while others are less obvious. A caution could be given for denying a clear goal scoring opportunity. Others may receive a red card for interfering in or stopping an offensive. The Red Card in Soccer Rules and Regulations is used to penalize players who may have been guilty of serious foul play.
Throw-ins
The rules for throwing-ins in soccer are fairly prescriptive, but this hasn't stopped players from coming up with bizarre ways to get the ball back into play. One such example is the way Steve Watson took Newcastle throw-ins in the early 1990s. Kallaste did a bizarre variation to this technique and ran to the throw in line before doing a handstand on top of the ball.
Instant replay
Instant replay is a way to correct referee errors and make the game more fair. The new technology would also help soccer officials communicate with the main referee on the field. This will prevent the game being stopped by one or more players who make a mistake or foul, and allow the game to continue as usual. The new technology would not distract players or fans. However, the question remains: Would instant replay really help the game?
