Offside: Law 11
Offside is the shortest law in the book yet it remains the most misunderstood. Answer the following questions to see if an infraction has occured.
- Is the player in the opponent's half of the field?
- Is the player closer to the opponent's goal line than the 2nd to the last defender?
- Is the player closer to the opponent's goal line than the ball?
- Was the player in this position at the moment the ball was touched or played by a teammate?
- Did the player touch the ball or were they involved in active play or interfere with an opponent or gain an advantage from their position?
If the answers to 1 - 4 are Yes, but 5 is No, then the player is in the Offside Position. This is OK and not a penalty. However if in the opinion of the referee the answers to all of the questions are Yes, then the player will probably be penalized for Offside.
