Rio Grande Games 248 Board Games User Manual


 
For the Penalty Kick all pawns except the Goal Keeper have to leave the Penalty
Area. The pawns can be placed on any square in rows 3 or 4 outside of the Penalty
Area, beginning with the team that committed the foul and alternating teams.
The pawn that was fouled is placed on one of the two squares in the penalty arc.
No D-Team pawns are allowed on these two squares. Place the ball on the Penalty
Kick spot.
The Goal Keeper is placed on the center of the goal line in the middle of the goal.
When everything is set up the O-Team shoots for the goal by spinning the spinner.
After the Penalty Kick the Goal Keeper is placed back on one of the two squares in
the Goal Area.
C. Minor Rule Violations
Every other violation of the rules during the game is a minor foul, and will result
in a Free Kick given to the offended team. No red or yellow cards (or Penalty Kicks)
are awarded for these minor fouls. An example of an minor foul would be the moving
of a defender pawn into the offensive half. When a violation is noticed the play is
corrected immediately, and the offended team takes a Free Kick from any one of the
four squares in the center spin circle.
However if the O-Team is the offended team, they can decline the Free Kick and
continue with the offensive chance.
10. Free Kick (see Figure 12)
After a foul (see ‘Fouls’, rule 9) the offended team gets a Free Kick. The offended
team gets the ball on the square where the foul was committed. The pawn that was
fouled does the Free Kick. All pawns of the opponent’s team must respect the one
square Free Kick Zone around the ball. This zone must also be respected on Corner
Kicks and the Kick-Off.
If there are any pawns from the team
that committed the foul in this zone they
must move out.
They have to be placed in the rows and
columns directly outside of this zone
(any squares). The O-Team then begins a
new OFFENSIVE-SET.
The pawn that does the Free Kick is not
allowed to touch the ball again until it has
been touched by another pawn
(from either team). Real Soccer rule!
[When you do a Free Kick after an
Off-Side, use any pawn from the offended
team close to the ball.]
