Question Number: 17150Law 14 - Penalty kick 10/7/2007RE: Other melissa of reading, vt usa asks...When do people get to take penalty kicks? Answer provided by Referee Michelle Maloney When one of the direct kick offenses listed in Law 12 Fouls and Misconduct occurs within the penalty area (the big rectangle in front of the goal), is seen by the referee and is called. Those ten are kicking, tripping, or striking or attempting to do those three; along with jumping at, charging or pushing; tackling an opponent to gain possession of the ball and making contact with the opponent before touching the ball; holding, spitting and deliberately handling the ball (except for keepers within their own penalty areas). A direct free kick offense under Law 12 requires the ball to be in play, the offense must be against an opponent, except for handling, and must occur on the field.
