EDIT: to make sure we're all on the same page, I'm talking if the player comes directly on the butt, not touching his/her foot at all. It's a walk if he/she touches a foot first and then lands on the butt, but I thought if the player just falls to the floor without touching the foot it cannot be a walk until another part of the body touches the floor.

See post #2 in this thread... there isn't an exception for "not touching the floor with the foot" or anything else like that.
I asked this same question 2 - 3 years ago on here, because I did exactly that several times when I played (I played goalie in soccer and so I used some of those instincts in diving for a ball and catching it. I never realized I traveled every time I came to the floor... sometimes it was called, sometimes it wasn't). |
