The foul may be subsequently called if the advantage does not materialize. b. BENCH PERSONNEL Anyone within the team area. c. CAUTIONED PLAYER A player notified by an official that his/her activities are not in the best interest of the contest. Such player must be shown a yellow card and shall leave the field and may be replaced. d. CHARGE An act by a defensive player employing body contact to cause an offensive player to lose or give up possession of the ball. A fair charge must have all the elements present which are set down in the rules. An unfair charge has one or more of those elements absent. e. DEAD BALL A term used to indicate a time when the ball is out-of-play. A goal can never be scored while the ball is dead. A restart can never be changed due to what occurs during a dead ball. f. DEFENSE (DEFENDING TEAM) Team not in possession of the ball. A team remains on defense until it establishes possession of the ball. g. DELIBERATE FOUL A purposely planned act done to disrupt the game and to gain an advantage through the unfair act. h. DISQUALIFIED PLAYER A player barred from further participation in the game. Such player shall be shown a red card and shall not be replaced during the game. i. DRIBBLER A player in control of the ball who attempts to move the ball by periodic touches with the feet. j. DROP BALL A method by which a dead ball becomes alive. An official drops the ball to the ground. When the ball strikes the ground, it becomes alive and may be played by anyone. k. ENCROACHMENT The act, by one or more defenders, of advancing within 10 yards of the ball prior to the taking of a free kick. l. FORFEIT The loss of a game because of termination under Rule 3-1-2 or for other reason as determined by the proper authority. m. FOUL A rule infraction by a player on the field of play during play, for which a free kick is awarded to the players opponents. n. FREE KICK A method by which a dead ball becomes alive. The ball is placed on the ground and, while motionless, it is kicked unchallenged in any direction prior to being touched by another player. The ball is in play when it has been kicked and moves. Simply taping the top of the ball with the foot or stepping on the ball are not sufficient. There are two types of free kicks direct from which a goal may be scored against an opponent without a second player touching the ball and indirect in which a goal may not be scored unless the ball is touched or played by another player of either team.
