still illegal for goalies to travel with the ball in their hands; however, they can dribble the ball. A player may use their feet to get the ball in the air to carry it. Penalties and Fouls A penalty is when a foul is committed inside the goal box and the other team gets to take a penalty kick. A foul, committed anywhere except in the box, results in a free kick for the player fouled. If the ball goes outside and is no longer in bounds the last player to touch it must give the ball to the other team. The team receiving the ball can throw it in like a throw-in for basketball. Unlike soccer, there are no yellow cards in Speedball. A player, who commits an unnecessary foul receives a red card. Unlike soccer, a single red card does not mean the player is kicked from the game. The player receiving the card must sit in a penalty box and must stay out for at least five minutes. Three red cards for a single player means a player is kicked from the match. Handball — if a player touches the ball with his/her hands after it touches the ground Traveling — when a player takes steps after coming to a complete stop while the ball is in the player's hands Unsportsmanlike Conduct — viciously assaulting another player with no intention of going after the ball Goalies Passing The Half Line — when a goalie moves over the half line References Lisa A.
