Teams without goalie may play with 4 field players and substitute a commercially produced soft foam body board no wider than 22” and no taller than 42” dug into sand and/or suspended from top bar of goal with leash or other cord. Shots rebounding into field of play go to team defending at time of shot. Body board cannot serve as one of female players on coed teams. 3. Initiate Play – Coin toss determines initial possession.

Players may not run with the ball any further than is required to stop to a maximum of three steps.

The defender guarding the ball carrier must count out the five seconds aloud to initiate turnover. Players, including goalies, may NOT initiate play with three or any steps while carrying ball. 5. Change of possession -- When a shot or pass is not successfully completed (e.g. shot, out of bounds, drop, block, interception), the defense immediately takes possession of the ball and becomes the offense. A pass deflected into sand or out of bounds goes to deflecting team. Sand must be removed from stick before resuming play. Upon turnover, one pass must be completed before shooting on goal. The defending player must give new ball carrier 4 feet to initiate first pass. Ball cannot be shot on goal by new offensive player until one pass is completed. 6.

Defender crosses may not be angled toward ball carrier to cover crosse carrying ball. Picks and screens are also prohibited. A foul occurs when any contact is made. If foul disrupts possession, possession is returned. 7. Scoring -- Each time the ball crosses and comes to rest within the front plane of goal, one point is scored. Play is re-started by goalie immediately after each goal with no referee intervention. The goalie is NOT allowed three steps while carrying ball. 8. Substitutions -- Players not in the game may replace players in the game at any time. 9. Fouls -- When a player initiates contact on another player a foul occurs. When a foul disrupts possession, the play resumes as if the possession was retained. Intentional rough or unsafe play and/or foul language will cause immediate dismissal from game and/or tournament. 10. Self-Refereeing -- Players are responsible for their own 3 step, foul and line calls. Referees are present for dispute resolution and safe play. Beach Lax stresses sportsmanship and fair play. Competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of respect of game and players, adherence to the rules, and fun of game. DANGEROUS PLAYERS AS DETERMINED BY ORGANIZERS MAY BE EJECTED WITH NO REFUNDS. PARENTS OR SPECTATORS INTERFERING WITH PLAY MAY BE ASKED TO LEAVE. RULES ARE EVOLUTIONARY AND MAY BE CHANGED AT ANY TIME. RULES AND CONDITIONS MAY BE CHANGED DURING A GAME WITH AGREEMENT OF BOTH TEAMS. *Basic rules for Beach Lax are the proprietary copyrighted property of the author and may not be used at other events without prior arrangement with the author. .

  • Ball State Football Postgame Notes Ball State 30, Western Michigan 27 Dec
    Ball State Football Postgame Notes Ball State 30, Western Michigan 27 Dec. 12, 2020 | Scheumann Stadium (Muncie, Ind.) Team • Ball State claimed its first MAC West Division championship and first trip to the MAC Championship Game since 2008. • The Cardinals (5-1) went undefeated against the West Division this season and extended their winning streak to five games, the longest for the program since 2013. • The BSU-WMU game came down to the final minute for the third straight year. Five of Ball State’s six games this season have been decided by a single score. Offense • Senior WR Justin Hall broke the school record for career receptions, reaching 252 for his career and passing former record holder Kevonn Mabon (244 from 2012-16). The nation’s active leader in career receptions, Hall extended his FBS-leading receptions streak to 42 straight games (every game of his career). He recorded a career-high 175 receiving yards today. • Justin Hall recorded his third career two-touchdown game and his first with both of them via receptions. He previously had two games with both a rushing and receiving score. Today’s touchdowns were Hall’s first since scoring twice in the season opener at Miami. He now has 17 career touchdowns (12 receiving, five rushing). • Redshirt senior quarterback Drew Plitt threw three touchdowns to bring his season total to 13 and his career total to 46, matching former teammate Riley Neal for third on the Cardinals’ all-time list. Plitt surpassed 6,000 career passing yards, moving into fifth on that all-time list at BSU.

  • Woody Paige: Conservative John Fox Brings Broncos to Their Knees
    Woody Paige: Conservative John Fox brings Broncos to their knees Woody Paige The Denver Post January 12, 2013 The cold, hard fact is the Broncos lost everything Saturday. And they blew it. They lost the overtime coin toss. They lost a cinch victory with 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter by blowing coverage. They lost the game on an intercepted pass late in the fifth quarter. They lost the playoff game early in the sixth quarter on a 47-yard field goal. They lost their chance at a ninth AFC championship game. They lost the opportunity for the franchise to win a third Super Bowl. Peyton Manning lost the prospect of playing a Super Bowl in his hometown of New Orleans and winning a second NFL championship. The Broncos lost the lead four times. They lost two interceptions and a fumble, all Manning turnovers. They lost a dozen arguments with the officials. They lost a rare home playoff game. The Broncos lost everything from the regular season in one historic postseason game. In a frozen conundrum on a Dr. Zhivago kind of day, in the chilliest and longest playoff game in Denver history, Ravens 38, Broncos 35. Rather than Holliday, Hillman and the Hallelujah High Way, it was to Hades in a Handbasket. Everybody shares the blame, but coach John Fox should get more than his share for his conservative approach. After the Ravens shocked a bitterly cold crowd with a 70-yard balloon bomb from Joe Flacco to Jacoby Jones, with just over half a minute to go, to tie the game for the fifth time, at 35-35, the Broncos had the ball at their 20-yard line, had two timeouts and had the quarterback who had produced more winning drives in the fourth quarter than anybody else who ever played the game.

  • June 2021 Study Guide We Are All Hopeful for a Non-Interrupted
    June 2021 Study Guide We are all hopeful for a non-interrupted season, good attendance at face to face summer camps and some semblance of normal officiating lives. Camps begin at Colquitt County High School July 17, 2021. It is time for study. Making things easier this year is the relative FEW rules changes. I am not certain a new rule or case books will be published- perhaps just a short synopsis as part of usual NFHS preseason publications. This month we extend into Rule 7- like we did last year. Just Rule 7. This rule does several things: 1. Sets the line of scrimmage parameters 2. Defines legal numbering as related to certain formations, motion, shifts 3. Defines all rules pertaining to the passing game- an increasing portion of every game At the end of this will be representative type questions you will see on Part II. They are culled from old Part II tests- some may be duplicates from prior study guides or even repeated within this guide if I don’t catch it. Go with the flow….I am trying to make things easier for group study and discussion. Rule 7-1 This rule describes the process PRIOR to the snap. It is not officiating down time!! 7-1-3: What limits are on the snapper once he has placed his hands on the ball? 7-1-4: Illegal snaps and snap infractions are DEAD BALL FOULS. What are types of illegal snaps? Who is most responsible for recognizing them? 7-1-7: Examples of a false start.
