Thanks everyone for your help. I thought we had it right, but I just wanted to confirm.

Oh.... and,

BEGIN RANT:
I had a situation in my first game today (the situation I originally started this thread with was my second game), Team A with the ball, I am right in front of Team B's coach as the trail official. A1 tries to pass the ball and B1 sticks his left leg out striking the ball with the top part of his knee. TWEEEEEEET! I call a "kicked ball". Team B's coach starts yelling that it hit his knee, when I informed him that any intentional striking of the ball with any part of the leg is a violation, he drops this one on me:

"THAT'S NOT WHAT IT SAYS IN THE RULE BOOK!"

Oh really?

OH REALLY?!?!?!

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you Rule 4-29:
Kicking the ball is intentionally striking it with any part of the leg or foot.

END RANT

Ok, sorry about that. But when coaches try to pretend that they know all the rules and then it gets the parents involved with yelling at us, it really irks me.

Anyway, back to your regularly scheduled bizarre stats from Mark Padgett.
