* If the penalty kick occurs during the game, and the player misses the goal, a goal kick is instead awarded to the
opposition.
* The referee awards penalty kicks if a team commits an infraction that prevents a goal scoring opportunity.
Handballs
* Deliberately handling the ball to prevent a clear goal-scoring opportunity results in a penalty. The offending player
receives a red or yellow card.
Heading

* If a player deliberately heads the ball, the opposing team gets an indirect free kick. The free kick takes place from
where the infraction occurred.
Slide Tackling & Kicking

* If an attacker touches the ball within the box, a goal kick is awarded to the defending team instead.
Goal scoring
* Teams cannot score with a direct shot from the halfway line or from within their own half.
* If they do happen to score directly from their defensive half, they are not given a point, and a goal kick is instead
awarded to the opposition team.
* If a defensive player kicks the ball across the halfway line and the ball hits another player before scoring, then the goal
stands.
Sportsmanship
