Question Number: 20308Law 15 - Throw In 10/20/2008RE: Adult Andy Griffiths of Maidstone, Kent UK asks...With regard to the throw-in. Where should the feet be? Can you stand with your heels on the line and your front part of your foot over the line on the pitch?
Regards
Andy Answer provided by Referee Gary Voshol The Law says that part of each foot must be on or behind the line. It doesn't restrict where the other part of the foot must be. So if the heel part is on the line, the toe part could be on the green part of the field, and it would be completely legal.
