Soccer. If a ball in flight crosses the sideline boundary, the ball is OOB and the opponent gets the ball for a throw-in where the ball crossed the sideline.

On top of that, it must be fully through the plane. If the ball is touching OOB (even only OOB) but part of the ball is still "over" the line, it is still in.

All responses are correct, but I will add for clarity that THE PLAYERS in soccer may go out of bounds and play the ball as long as some part of the ball remains inside the boundary plane. So THE PLAYERS can leave the field through the normal course of play in soccer as well as in basketball.

Nothing in new rules, that could be any where close to being construed to fit the OP's Ref's explanation?

He could have been incorrectly interpreting the violation for leaving the floor (going out of bounds) voluntarily.
He is wrong because a player may have his/her momentum cause him/her to go out of bounds while making a play, and that is NOT to be penalized as a violation of the rule. |
