NOTE - This only applies to Under 7 - Under 8 & Under 9 in 2024/25
It will be extended in future seasons but for season 2024-25 it only applies to Under 7 , Under 8 & Under 9 Football.
An Under 9 player who plays in an Under 9 Match MUST adhere to the New Rules, but should they play in an Under 10 match the old rules still apply.
A goal cannot be scored directly from a Kick In, but if the player takes the 'Kick In' and 'Dribbles the Ball In' then a goal can be scored without another player touching the ball.
