Kicks From The Penalty mark 10/21/2014

RE: travel Under 15

Chris McIntyre of Dover Plains, NY USA asks...

Can a goalkeeper participate in and take kicks in a penalty shoot out to decide a tie in a match?

Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh

Hi Chris
Why not? He is a player the same as his other team mates. In fact if it gets to 10 successful penalty kicks he must take a penalty kick like any other player.
