  • My problem with that rule is that it infers that if a player ball joints the ball AT ALL he must pass before a goal can be scored...

    "If ball is cupped up to goals" was the wording, so if a player takes possession of a ball in their own half heads towards the opponents goal and uses a ball joint to get past an opponent or control the ball then continues to dribble the ball and shoots for goal has he "cupped the ball up to the goals?" if not where is the break off point? can he cup up to the D/the halfway line...? I'd rather lose the ambiguity...

    Personally, I think you should have to pass to another player on your team from a ball-joint, not just release and shoot, but I am happy to ref a 'release & shoot' rule.
