• The ball is considered out of bounds
when:

• Touches a boundary line
• Touches the ground outside the
boundary line
• Touches something out of bounds
(i.e. spectator, football/soccer posts)

The ball could not realistically be
played

Scoring
• A goal is scored when a ball crosses
the plane of the goal

• The ball does not have to be loose
when it crosses the plane of the goal.


Scoring

• If a
goalkeeper,
while in
possession of
the ball, breaks
the plane of
the goal it is a
goal.

• A goal will be cancelled if:
– The time has expired prior to the ball
crossing the plane of the goal

(even an inadvertent whistle)
– Any attacking player is in the crease
(for any reason – even if pushed in illegally)
– Too many attack players are on the ﬁeld
– The attacking team is offside
– Too many attacking team long sticks are on
the ﬁeld
– The goal is scored with an illegal or broken
stick


The Designated Goalkeeper
• The Designated Goalkeeper has a special
set of rules that relate to the crease, and are
there for the protection of the goalkeeper
• The Designated Goalkeeper is deﬁned as:
– The player who is carrying the
goalkeeper’s stick (15”) or, when no
goalkeepers stick is on the ﬁeld, the
player that has been designated by the
Captain of that team


• The Goalkeeper is deemed to be inside
the crease when any part of his body
is touching inside the crease (crease
line included)
• Any other defensive player in the
crease does not have the privileges of
the Designated Goalkeeper


• The Goalkeeper must serve their own
fouls unless the designated defender
(starting longstick) is being used.
– If not using designated defender, call a
30 second Referee time-out to allow the
team time to substitute a new
Goalkeeper. No warm up is to be allowed

the call, have the DD serve the foul. No
time out called.

• The Goalkeeper may:
– Stop the ball with his hand, stick or body
– Play the ball without his stick inside his crease
– Bat the ball with his hand. He cannot close his
hand on the ball.

passing “back-in” any number of times)
– Go over the center line, however the defensive
team is subject to the offside rule
– Pass or roll the ball inside the crease and go
back in and pick it up. Only once per team
possession

• The Goalkeeper (or any defensive player) may
not:
– Carry the ball back into the crease
– Hold onto the ball for more than 4 seconds in
the crease. A player who deliberately drops
the ball and regains possession to circumvent
this rule shall be assessed a technical foul
– Possession is deemed to have started when
the goalkeeper traps the ball inside the
crease with their stick, or has control of the
ball in their stick inside the crease
– Play with a broken stick

Awarding Possession
• Possession is never awarded:
– Within 15 feet of ANY player, even from
the same team. No hidden ball trick to
start play.
