### Painted Items

### Player Behavior

* We have made changes and improvements to how we track and take action against in-game griefing and scoring on your own team (“own-goaling”)
* If you witness any griefing or own-goaling during a match, please use the “Match Throwing/Griefing” report reason
* This will lead to disciplinary action under the “Unsportsmanlike Conduct” ban reason
* When a player is banned, a “Report Feedback” notification is sent to all players who sent in eligible reports for Match Throwing/Griefing

### General

* Similar to the new shot controls in Custom Training, ball controls in Free Play now display at all times in the upper left corner
