No-Play Crease
A 5-foot no-play crease will be marked in front of every goal. Players may move through the crease, but the ball cannot be touched within in. If the attacking team touches the ball in the crease, the other team is given a goal-kick. If the defending team touches the ball in the crease, the attacking team is awarded a penalty kick.

Free Kicks
All free kicks, except penalty kicks, are indirect and the opponent must be five yards away from the ball prior to restarts. If five yards does not exist between the goal and the point of the foul, the defending team moves back as far as they are able, avoiding the crease.


Penalty Kicks
Penalty kicks are awarded for a no-play crease infraction or for slide tackling. Taken from midfield. No goalkeeper. All other players are behind the midfield line. If the shot is missed, the opposite team restarts play with a goal kick.
