When the whole of the ball passes over the goal-line, excluding the portion
between the goal-posts, either in the air or on the ground, having last been
played by one of the defending team, a member of the attacking team shall take a
corner-kick, i.e. the whole of the ball shall be placed within the quarter
circle at the nearest corner-flagpost, which must not be moved, and it shall be
kicked from that position. A goal may be scored direct from such a kick. Players
of the team opposing that of the player taking the corner-kick shall not
approach within 10 yards of the ball until it is in play, i.e. it has traveled
the distance of its own circumference, nor shall the kicker play the ball a
second time until it has been touched or played by another player.
Punishment:
- If the player who takes the kick plays the ball a second time before it
has been touched or played by another player, the referee shall award an IFK
to the opposing team, to be taken from the place where the infringement
occurred, subject to the overriding conditions imposed in Law 13.
- For any other infringement the kick shall be retaken.
