I have been trying to find this in the rules somewhere so I can print the rule out.
BobMc, think of it this way, view the tip as if the player is trying to grab a rebound. This is legal as SmokeEater stated previously. It is a try for goal.

What would be wrong or illegal with what you just described? A tip is a try for goal (that is what a try is).

If you are having problem understanding our answer, then you need to read Rule 4 (Definitions) in detail. The terms we used are rulebook language and in order to understand what a "try" is or "rebounds," then you have to make yourself familiar with these terms.

Are you an official, player, coach or fan? This also would help in answering your question. This is an official's forum so we are going to assume that you are an official without further information.

Peace
