Everyonce in a while I try to come up with a weird "what if" play and see what peoples answers are. So here goes one for today.

A1 has the ball in his defensive half of the field and is slashed by B1(flag down). A1 then passes to the goalie(A2), but it tips off of A2's stick and goes into the goal. (a) the ball hits the ground before entering the goal (b) does not touch the ground before entering the goal.


(a) is easy: 7-8-11 ball hits the ground and is not a shot it is dead, no goal.

(b) 4-9-10 says " The ball is in the defensive half of the field and the team in possession fails to clear the ball into its goal area." Technically the team failed to clear the ball. If you say the clear failed when A2 muffed the pass (or even A2 missed it entirely)before the ball went into the goal there is a dead ball right there, no goal.
