As you state the facts of the play, I would either call nothing at all or penalize the player who put himself in danger. Now if I felt that the player attempting to kick the ball could clearly see the fallen player and should have held up and petitioned the referee for a call (players do this by stopping and putting an arm up), then I would penalize the kicker for kicking the opponent and award a DFK.

Thanks for the responses. I emailed a referee at USSF headquarters using that askareferee email address, and the responder said that there's nothing according to how I described the play. However, as I remember the play vividly, I would have definitely called the dangerous play on the falling player and then would have some explaining to do to the coach haha.
"BUT HE KICKED MY PLAYER IN THE FACE!!!" "Yeah, but he fell near the the ball, putting himself in danger..." EDIT: Additionally, I agree that if the player would have stopped and threw his arms up, I would immediately stop play and award an IFK. However, if he just taps the ball away to play it, I would have waited a second or two to see if an advantage is there. Last edited by representing; Wed Sep 28, 2011 at 11:50pm. |

In USSF, this is nothing, but in NFHS it may be a dangerous play. |

What would you say are the most common reasons to call dangerous play? Here are four that come to my mind (taking into account there's someone else -- or an opponent, in USSF -- in the vicinity):
*Playing the ball while on the ground *Playing the ball with a foot *Raising a knee while someone approaches them *Sliding directly at someone with cleats up Who wants to add to the list?

I have a hard time imagining giving DP for a studs up challenge. If they come up short, it's trifling and if they don't it's a DFK foul and a caution. |
