the game, but change Immediately after
the kick off. although the halves should
approximately preserve their positions
with respect to the forwards all through
the game. The fullbacks advance G.j
the halves and forwards advance. but
at considerably less speed, so that they
will not get so far away from their
own goal as to be unable to get back to
position before an opponent reaches it..
The goalkCcpcr should never leave his
position except when the opposing for
wards are too far away to be- a source
Of danger and then only for the smallest
fraction of time necessary to enable
him to clear the ball down the field.
The goalkccprr is the only player who
is allowed to touch the ball with his
hands. This enables him to pick IN
the ball and quickly throw it to one side
or the other as far down the field as
possible. He must get rid of the ball
Just as rapidly as possible. for he may
be charged or tackled by an opponent
while he has possession of the ball
lie may not be charged in the goal area
while he does not have possession OF
the ball unless he is obstructing an op-
pOncnt.
The law is:
Tho goalkCcpcr may within his own
penalty area use his hands. but shall
not carry the ball. The goalkccpcr
shall not be charged except when he
is holding the ball or obstructing an
opponent, or when he has passed out
side the goal area.
Carrying the ball by the goalkecpcl
is construed to mean taking more
than two steps with the ball or bounc'
ing it on the hand.
When the goalkccpcr gets outside the
penalty area he loses all his privileges
and takes exactly the same standing as
any Of the other players.
Tomorrow Mr.. stewart will explain I'M
duties Of the various players.
