9 Annex a. RULES EUROPEAN HANDBALL Starting play All players begin the game in their own half. The team winning the toss starts the game with a pass from the centre line. The non-scoring team restarts from the centre line after a goal is scored. Starting play is known as the throw-off. After the start of play, court players are allowed anywhere on the court except for either goal area. Scoring A goal is scored whenever the entire ball passes the goal line between the posts and under the cross bar. Moving the ball A player is allowed to run three steps with the ball before it must be bounced, passed of shot. If bounced, a further three steps are allowed but the ball must then be passed or thrown at the goalie. If a player with the ball is stationary and not dribbling, a three-second rule applies instead of three steps. Dribbling Dribbling is permitted. However, as soon as the ball is held with one or both hands, it must be passed after three steps or three seconds. Playing the ball Players can throw, punch or hit the ball in any direction using hands, arms, head, back, thigh or knee. However, contact with the ball below the knee is not permitted (goalkeepers are the exception and are allowed to use feet when defending goal). Passes back to the goalkeeper inside the goal area are also not allowed. Substitutes Substitutes are made at any time and without play being stopped. There is no limit to the number that can be made. Substitutions must be made in the special area near the center line and the sub cannot enter until the player has left the court. Contact Body contact is limited to the torso only. Arms or legs may not be used to obstruct an opponent. Holding, pushing, hitting, running or jumping into an opponent are all fouls. For younger categories, body contact should be discouraged. Free throws Infringements result in a free throw which is taken from the spot where the foul occurred. Opposition players must be a minimum of 3 meters away from the player taking the free throw. All attacking players must be outside the broken line. In the case of serious infringements or when a goal-scoring opportunity is spoiled by an infringement, a penalty throw is given. All other players, except the defending goalkeeper, must be outside the free throw line while the player takes the penalty from the penalty line. For rough play, a 2 minutes penalty is given. If the same player receives three such suspensions, he/she cannot take any further part in the match. Infringements A free throw is awarded for any of these infringements: an opponent is fouled the ball is played incorrectly the line around the goal area is touched or crossed players behave in an unsporting manner deliberately waste time

10 incorrect substitution The goal area Except for the goalkeeper, the goal area cannot be entered by any other player from either side. Goalkeepers can leave this area provided they do not have possession of the ball. Only the goalkeeper is allowed to dive for a ball that is lying or rolling on the ground. Offensive players are permitted to jump in the air space over the goalie s area as long as the ball is released prior to landing. Throw-ins A throw in is awarded when the ball crosses the side line. The non-offending team throws the ball back into play. The player taking the throw in must place one foot on the sideline. A goal can be scored directly from a throw in. What s needed to play?

All pullers must be registered to compete or registered escorts of the squadron s team. 2. The Competition Area shall be located on a flat piece of ground, ideally of either packed earth, or mowed sod. The area should be approximately 30 metres by 50 metres and for the protection of the spectators, should be quarantined. It will be the responsibility of the Competition Officials to ensure that the designated Competition Area for the event is clear of all debris, etc., which might constitute a danger of injuries to the pullers. 3. Substitutions are acceptable. If a team can not field 20 pullers, the opposing team can drop pullers accordingly as a gesture of sportsmanship, at their option. 4. The competition rope shall be not less than 75 and not greater than 110 in length. 1 ¾ to 2 in diameter. 5. The distance of the pull shall be 4 metres on either side of the center of the rope. a) Outside Marker Red or Green tape. b) Center Marker - White tape. c) Lead Man's Marker - Blue tape, one metre from outside marker. 6. Pullers may position themselves on either side of the rope. The Lead Man must grip the rope back of the blue marker. The Anchor may encircle the rope around their body, but any knot tied in the rope must not be tied any further than six (6) inches (or metric equivalent) in front of their grip, and must be untied immediately after the pull. The anchor will grip the rope with both hands in a normal fashion. The rope shall pass alongside the body, diagonally across the back and under the opposite shoulder from rear to front. The remaining rope shall pass under the armpit in a backward and outward direction and the slack shall run free. The puller second to the anchor must not lean on that knot. 7. When the judge has received a signal from the two coaches that all is ready, he shall give the teams the following verbal and visual commands: a) "Pick up the rope" The rope shall then be gripped as defined below, the feet being flat on the ground Every pulling member shall hold the rope with both bare hands by the ordinary grip, i.e. the palms of both hands facing up, and the rope shall pass between the body and the upper part of the arm. Any other hold which prevents the free movement of the rope is a Lock and is an infringement of the Rules. b) "Take the Strain" Sufficient strain being put on the rope to ensure that it is taut. In outdoor competitions each man may establish one foothold with the heel or side of the boot with the extended foot. The judge shall then signal the rope to

14 the centre position. When the rope is steady with the centre mark over the centre line on the ground: c) "Steady" After a reasonable pause d) Pull 8. A good start means to get ready when asked by the referee by taking the strain at the same time as the other team. Failure to cooperate for a good start may result in disqualification of the offending team for that pull. Similarly, when teams are called to the rope by the referee, no unreasonable delay will be permitted. Such a delay shall constitute a disqualification of the offending team for that pull. a) In both of the above cases, the victory shall go to the opposite team by default. b) Each match shall consist of best 2 out of 3 pulls. A reasonable rest is granted between pulls. A win is awarded in the following: i. One of the side makers clearly crosses the center line marker. ii. The opposing team fouls out (receives a 3rd caution). 9. Only the feet shall be used for traction. Deliberately or continuously resting any other portion of the body on the ground without showing a convincing effort to get up, or grabbing the turf with the hand for extra traction, is reason for disqualification for that pull only. When any team member fails to comply with the "Stand Up" rule, the official will announce "First Caution" against that team. If the offence occurs a second time for the same team, the official will announce "Second Caution" against the team. Any further offence will result in the official blowing his whistle, and immediately ending that pull. The offending team will thus be disqualified and the win will go to the other team. 10. A puller may push themselves up with one hand ONLY to regain their footing. 11. Gloves are permitted. Teams are to provide their own. 12. HAND-OVER-HAND feeding of the rope to retain a good traction spot shall not be allowed and will result in a caution being called. Steady pressure must be maintained on the rope at all times. The following cases may result in a caution or loss of the pull, at the discretion of the official: a) RELEASE AND REPULL (stepping forward or hand feeding of the rope by a team when on strain causing the opposing team to fall down, and immediately pulling that team forward) shall not be allowed. b) Any WHIPPING ACTION of the rope designed to throw off the opposing team. c) SIDE-STEPPING by a team to throw the opposing team off balance shall not be allowed.
