Pass on Goal April 5, 2019 World Games 2014 0 Forum Questions A1 is just below GLE and takes a "shot" on goal. Being that the shot originated behind the goal line, it's not considered a legal shot. A1's shot -- for lack of a better term -- hits the post and ricochets toward the sideline, with players from A and B racing for position to gain possession when the ball goes out. Because it's not a legal shot, it shouldn't matter who is closer when the ball goes out of bounds; rather, it's just like an errand pass from A1 to A2 that goes out... B takes possession when play resumes. Right?

Unless it is blatantly obvious that the ball was below GLE when it was released, you should use your game-management skills on this. If it was close enough, you could choose to rule it a shot, especially if it results in possession for a team that is way behind on the score. Answer File Question Answered Yes No
