The players of the opposing team shall be positioned at least at five yards from the ball. Gameplay: • A player who is sent off, be it for two bookings or a straight red, can be replaced by a substitute after a two-minute penalty, just as in futsal. Nevertheless, the substitute could come into play before those two minutes are up if the opposing team scores with their numerical advantage. There is no pre-set number of fouls that individual players must not exceed. • There is no punting, goalkeepers can only throw • No Direct goals on kick-off. The ball must touch another player. • Penalty Area: Two flagpoles delineate the penalty area on each side of the playing court. The two flagpoles are placed 10 yards from each corner. Two imaginary lines, parallel to the base lines and unifying the penalty flags, define the penalty areas. The exact positions for penalty kicks shall be the center of these penalty lines. • Four flag poles are placed in each corner of the playing sand court. Two flags are placed in the center of the court and define the mid-court line. • Free Kick: The referee will award a free kick from the point where a foul was committed. The player who suffered the infraction must execute the kick. The kick shall be "direct", from which a goal can be scored directly against the defending side.. • No Walls: If the infraction is committed against the offensive team in the offensive team's attacking end, no defensive players may form a wall. Until the free kick is executed, all players must position themselves behind or on the same line as the ball placed at the point where a foul was committed, and they must remain at a minimum distance of five (5) yards from the ball. Goalkeeping r must remain in his penalty area and at least five (5) yards from the ball, but may stand on the goal line regardless of distance from the ball. • Offensive Infractions during Free Kicks: If any irregularity happens when a free kick is being taken, the following will occur: If the team that is taking the free kick commits the irregularity, a new free kick shall be awarded to the defending team from the point where the infraction has taken place. Any player of that team shall be allowed to take the direct kick. • Offensive Infractions during Free Kick: If the defending team commits the irregularity, and a goal is not scored because the ball has been blocked, a new free kick will be taken from the point where the original or new infraction has taken place, kicking teams choice. • Penalty Kick: A penalty kick shall be awarded when a player inside his own team's penalty area commits a foul, while the ball is in play. The player who has suffered the infraction must take the penalty kick, with the exception of a pass-back. The ball shall be placed at 10 yards distance from the center of the goal. All players except for the defending goalkeeper shall position themselves outside the penalty area, and they can enter into the penalty area only after the ball has moved as the result of the execution of the penalty kick. When taking a penalty kick, a player is allowed to place the ball on the spot of the foul and make a small sand lump, thus elevating the position of the ball. The player who takes the penalty kick must do it in a continuous movement. Any player can play the ball once it rebounds from the defending goalkeeper. The player who has executed the penalty kick shall not be allowed to play the ball once it rebounds directly from a goal post or from the crossbar. • Goalkeeper's position: When defending a penalty kick the goalkeeper must position himself on the goal line between both goal posts. • Infractions during penalty kicks: If the team that is taking the penalty kick commits an irregularity and the goal is scored, the shot will be repeated. If a goal is not scored, the defending goalkeeper shall restart the game. If the defending team commits an irregularity, the free kick will be repeated in case a goal has not been scored as the result of the penalty kick. If the defending team commits an irregularity and a goal is scored, the goal shall stand. • The Goalkeeper's Restart: The goalkeeper's re-start is awarded when one player of the attacking team plays or deflects the ball over the base line, excluding the goal itself. The goalkeeper shall restart the play with his hands and has five (5) seconds to do so, from the moment he stands and he has control of the ball. If the goalkeeper delays the game for more than five (5) seconds, or re-starts the game passing the ball to his feet, the other team shall be awarded a free kick from the mid-court line. The goalkeeper cannot score a goal using his hands. In such case the other goalkeeper shall re-start the play. The goalkeeper can score a goal only as a regular player, kicking the ball only once it has been passed to him by another player. • The Pass-Back Rule: The goalkeeper shall not be allowed to touch the ball with his/ her hands or arms two consecutive times when a ball is returned to him/her from a player of his team, including a header or an inbound pass, without the ball having touched an opponent player. An infraction of the "pass-back rule" results in a penalty kick against the team that did commit the infraction. • Corner Kicks: The corner kick shall be given when a player of the defensive team plays or deflects the ball out of bounds through his/her team's base line, not a goal. A player of the attacking team must take the corner kick. The ball shall be placed within a one (1) yard radius from the corner. A corner kick is a direct kick. The defending players can position themselves at a minimum distance of five yards from the corner. If a defending player shall touch or block the ball inside the five (5) yard radius directly from a corner kick, the corner kick shall be repeated. When taking a corner kick a player has five (5) seconds to execute the kick from the moment that he has possession of the ball.

  • Physical Activity Guide on Beach Sports and Activities
    PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GUIDE ON BEACH SPORTS AND ACTIVITIES PREFACE Beach is relished for the combination of scenic beauty with fresh air and most commonly associated with relaxing, sunbathing, swimming, “picnicking” and recreational activities. The purpose and ambition of the BeActive Beach Games is to promote physical activities whilst relaxing at the beach and waterside areas. With the rich offer of non- physical activities available to all age groups, it is important that physical activities are interesting, entertaining and accessible outside the traditional contexts such as a gym. It is therefore expected that providing a ready-made solution for activities on a beach will fulfil these criteria. The Physical Activity Guide on Beach Sports and Activities offers a range of sports and physical activities that can be practiced on the sand and in the water and would stimulate physical activity in a beach setting whether it is a natural or an artificial one. The guide provides information on describing the respective field of sports – Beach volleyball, Sitting beach volleyball, Beach tennis, Beach soccer (football), Beach dodgeball, Frescobol, Capoeira, Surfing, SUP boarding, Beach handball and Beach ultimate (frisbee), required equipment, necessary conditions, rules and the model of the activities as well as further information and contacts for professional guidance. The guide combines the organisational expertise, the process of recruitment and preparation of participants and the experiences from working with different groups and segments of citizens in different parts of Europe gained from two BeActive Beach Games events in an artificial beach in Riga, Latvia and in a natural beach in Portimao, Portugal.
