Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A player on team 1 is awarded a throw-in. The player throws it to his/her teammate who is behind all of the defence at the time. The ref should call offside.
2. Team 1 is awarded a corner kick. The player shoots the ball from the corner and it does not touch any other player but goes into the net. How do you restart the game?
3. Team 2 is awarded a free kick. The player taking the kick slips on some wet grass and nudges the ball forward a bit. He/she sees the defence coming and kicks the ball to his/her teammate. This is against the rules.
4. How would you restart the game if a dog or some other animal runs onto the field and infringes with the game?
5. Team 2 is in team 1's penalty box about to shoot the ball from a breakaway when a player on team 1 punches a player on team 2 at the midfield. The AR (Assistant Referee) gets the ref's attention and does the write signal to tell the ref what happened. The player who was on the breakaway then shoots the ball after the punch has occurred and scores a goal. What is the call?
6. Team 1 is on defence and team 2 is on offence and a player on team 1 slide-tackles the player with the ball on team 2 from behind. If the player was outside of the penalty area but the ball was in the penalty box, how do you restart?
7. Team 2 is awarded a penalty kick, and before the player kicks the ball the assistant referee sees that a player on team 1 (defence) steps into the penalty box just before the ball is kicked. The player on team 2 scores a goal after the player went into the box. How do you restart?
8. Team 2 is awarded a penalty kick but as the player runs up to the ball he/she slips on the wet grass and barely nudges the ball. How do you restart the game?
9. A player passes the ball back to the goal keeper with his feet. The goalie then picks up the ball with his hands inside the box and punts it away. There is nothing wrong with this play.
10. Opportunity is when calling a foul would hurt the team who is being fouled, and more than if you didn't call it (example is when a player is on a breakaway and a defender slide tackles them from behind but the player stumbles a bit and does not fall). The player keeps going with no other defenders in front of him/her. If you called the foul then you would have to stop the play which would let the defence get back into position which would increase their chances of the other team not scoring.
