FOULS AND MISCONDUCT
 
Fouls

• Slide tackling is a major foul in Futsal.  It is not allowed in any situation where there is contact between players or where referees believe that contact could have resulted.

Exceptions

• The GK is allowed to slide in an attempt to clear the ball, if in referees’ judgment; his slide is an attempt only to make contact with the ball, not the opponent.  If GK slid is reckless (a foot in air, a hook, rolling tackle) it is a foul and possibly a card-able offense. 

• A field player may slide in instances where there is not an opponent close by and no injury is likely to occur. This would most likely happen when a player is attempting to stop the ball from going out of bound or an offensive player sliding to knock the ball into the goal where the is not other defensive player close to the play.

• Players and coaches should use this general rule, if you slide tackle near a player, assume if will be called a major penalty.

6^th Accumulated foul

• Upon a team’s 6^th accumulated foul in each half, the defending team cannot build a wall to block the kick. The player taking the kick must be clearly identified and the player taking the kick must make an attempt at the goal.  All other players must remain behind the ball.

• Infringements occurring in penalty area (not deemed a PK) will be taken at the nearest point on the penalty arc.

• Infringements occurring within 12 meters of the goal will be punished with a direct kick from the spot of the infringement.

• Infringements occurring farther than 12 meters of the goal will be punished with a direct kick from the second penalty spot.

Accumulated Fouls resulting in Direct Kick

• Kicking or attempting to kick an opponent

• Tripping or attempting to trip an opponent

• Jumping at an opponent

• Charges an opponent (Shoulder Charging)

• Strikes or attempts to strike an opponent

• Pushes an opponent

• Holding an opponent

• Spits at an opponent

• Slide tackles with exceptions above

 Sending Off Fouls

• Handling the ball deliberately, except for GK in their area.  Denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent moving toward the goal. Player sent off cannot re-enter the game.  Substitution is allowed after 2 minutes.

• No shoulder charging.

Indirect Free Kick

• 5 yards of distance from kicker to set up wall, and ball is in play after it has been touched.  If the kicking team takes more time than 4 seconds to take the kick, it becomes the opposition’s indirect kick.
